Suggested answer: B

Explanation:

In a Splunk search containing a subsearch, the inner subsearch executes first (Option B). The result of the subsearch is then passed to the outer search. This is because the outer search often depends on the results of the inner subsearch to complete its execution. For example, a subsearch might be used to identify a list of relevant terms or values which are then used by the outer search to filter or manipulate the main dataset.
