I'm going with B. The voltage regulator is there to ensure the generator puts out a consistent voltage, which is super important for the connected equipment.

Haha, D is just silly. Why would the voltage regulator be controlling the starter voltage? That's not its purpose at all.

I was a bit confused at first, but after thinking it through, B makes the most sense. The voltage regulator is there to maintain a stable voltage, not control the current or the starter voltage.

The voltage regulator is clearly meant to control the voltage at the alternator's output, so B is the correct answer.
