Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
XIC stands for "extended instruction contact" and is typically a normally open contact that is used to control the operation of a motor. In a motor start/stop control logic, the pushbutton associated with the XIC stop contact would also be normally open, meaning that the circuit is open (i.e. the motor is not running) unless the pushbutton is pressed to close the circuit (i.e. start the motor).
