Model Answer

(B) From south pole to north pole

Inside a bar magnet, the direction of field lines is from its south pole to its north pole.

Explanation

The textbook explicitly states: "Inside the magnet, the direction of field lines is from its south pole to its north pole." Outside the magnet, field lines go from north to south — a common trap. Remember: field lines form closed curves, so they must return from south to north inside the magnet.
