Verified by Toppr

The given sentence clearly states a warning message. The usage of a question mark here, is incorrect.
Such strong feelings, high volume or a message with an emphasis is followed by an exclamation mark. Thus, the correct answer is Option B.
The period is used to end a sentence. It does not bring out the required emphasis.
