The correct answer is: **A. Electrical energy from the outlet is converted to heat and light energy for the toaster.**

When a toaster is plugged in and used, electrical energy is drawn from the outlet and mainly converted into heat energy to toast the bread. Some toasters may also emit a small amount of light during operation, but primarily, the transformation involves electrical energy being converted to heat energy.
