Explanation

B is correct because the process of a newly powered-on switch joining an existing, running stack system is technically called stack merging, not "stack joining." "Stack joining" is not the standard term used in network stack documentation for this behavior.

Option A is wrong because it accepts an incorrect technical label - using the wrong terminology on an exam (or in practice) can cause confusion when configuring or troubleshooting stacked systems.

Options C and D are empty distractors with no content, so they cannot be correct answers.

Memory tip: Think of two things coming together as a merge - when a new switch powers on and combines with a running stack, it's a merge (stack merging), just like merging lanes in traffic. "Joining" sounds plausible but isn't the precise technical term the industry uses.
