As per the continuity equation, the flow rate of fluid throughout the pipe is the same.
So how can the given option be correct?

If a pipe in parallel combination:
Q = Q1 +Q2 +Q3
hf = hf1 = hf2 = hf3.
If a pipe in series combination:-
Q = Q1 = Q2 = Q3.
hf(total) = hf1 + hf2 + hf3.
Where
hf = head loss.
Q = flow rate.
Q = Q1 +Q2 +Q3
hf = hf1 = hf2 = hf3.
If a pipe in series combination:-
Q = Q1 = Q2 = Q3.
hf(total) = hf1 + hf2 + hf3.
Where
hf = head loss.
Q = flow rate.

If it is series than 'C' would have been the right answer.
