Explanation:
The answer is B.
A bull call spread is constructed by buying a call at the lower strike and selling a call at the higher strike. Since the displayed position is a long call with strike 40, the missing leg must be a short call with a higher strike. Among the choices, only B matches this structure with a strike of 43.
This is also consistent with the provided answer key: the bull spread profit combines the long call at K = 40 with the short call at K = 43.

The bull spread profit is simply a plot of the combination of the displayed long call and the un-displayed option. Which option is not plotted; i.e., which option must contribute to the bull spread profit yet is NOT displayed in the graph?
A
Long call with a $1.25 premium and strike of $39.00; i.e., ,
B
Short call with a $2.65 premium and strike of $43.00; i.e., ,
