Answer:

A.The two ends are like poles

Explanation:

Magnets are composed of a north pole and a south pole. If two like poles of a magnetic are placed near each other, the two ends seem to push apart.

The reason for this is that, when like poles of two magnets are made to face each other, the lines of forces are in opposite directions, hence the magnets repel.

If unlike poles of two bar magnets are made to face each other, the magnetic lines of force are now in the same direction therefore the unlike poles attract each other.
