When you have selected features in a map layer and want to create a new dataset containing only those selected features, the proper workflow is to right-click the layer in the Contents pane, go to Data > Export Features. This process honors the current selection set and creates a new feature class based on that selection.
The Catalog pane (Options A and C) exports entire datasets and doesn’t apply the selection set directly.
Export Features (Option B) directly works with selected features and generates a new dataset from them.
Therefore, the correct answer is B.
