d. its thermal energy decreases.

Explanation:

When water is heated on a stove, heat is transferred to the water. Thermal energy is the energy associated with the temperature of an object. As heat is added, the temperature of the water rises, and its thermal energy increases. There is no change in electromagnetic energy in this context of simply heating water on a stove.

Answer:

C. Its thermal energy increases.
