Answer

Correct option: B.
$\begin{matrix}
   C{{H}_{3}}-CH-\overset{\centerdot }{\mathop{C}}\,-C{{H}_{3}}  \\
   \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,|\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,|\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,  \\
   \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,D\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,C{{H}_{3}}\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,  \\
\end{matrix}$
b
$\begin{matrix}
   C{{H}_{3}}-CH-CH-C{{H}_{3}}  \\
   |\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,|\,\,\,\,\,  \\
   D\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,C{{H}_{3}}  \\
\end{matrix}+\overset{\centerdot }{\mathop{Br}}\,$ $ \to $ $\underset{{{3}^{o}}\,free\,radical\,[more\,stable]}{\mathop{\begin{matrix}
