To determine which net represents the rectangular prism, we should look for the unfolded version of a rectangular prism in the options given.

The option that describes "four adjoining rectangles with shared sides stacked on top of one another" closely resembles the net of a rectangular prism, as it includes the necessary rectangles for the sides of the prism.

Now, let’s eliminate the other options:
- The option with a composite figure of a rectangle and circles does not represent a prism.
- The option describing an unfolded triangular prism with triangles does not match a rectangular prism.
- The option that describes an unfolded cube consists of squares, which is different from rectangles.

Therefore, the correct net representing the rectangular prism is the one that consists of four adjoining rectangles, as this configuration allows for the sides and top/bottom faces of the rectangular prism.

So, the answer is:
**The first option, which shows the unfolded version of a rectangular prism, consists of four adjoining rectangles.**
