The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

Step 1: Current and fields.
A current is moving charges, hence it produces both electric and magnetic fields.
Step 2: Verification.
- Electric field exists due to charge distribution. - Magnetic field exists due to current motion (Biot–Savart law).
Step 3: Conclusion.
Thus, both electric and magnetic fields are produced.
