    A.

    #

    B.

    @

    C.

    &

    D.

    $

    Correct option is B

    The @ symbol is used to separate the username and the domain name in an email address (e.g., user@example.com).
    Important Key Points:
    1. Email Format: The username is the part before the @ symbol, and the domain name is the part after it.
    2. Email Address: An email address uniquely identifies an email account and is used for sending and receiving messages.
    Knowledge Booster:
    · Domain Name: Identifies the server that will handle emails for a given address.
    · Origin of @: The @ symbol was chosen by Ray Tomlinson when the first email system was created.
