Right answer should be D. According to "operating characteristic curve" with increasing flow rate the hydraulic efficiecy is first increase and then decrease.

For centrifugal pumps, the efficiency tends to increase with flow rate up to a point midway through the operating range (peak efficiency) and then declines as flow rates rise further.

Answer would be D. It's head which decreases monotonically with flow rate.

Pw = (Q x H) / 3960.
Where:
Q= Flow (gallons per minute-GPM).
H= Head (feet).
Where:
Q= Flow (gallons per minute-GPM).
H= Head (feet).

In mathematics, a monotonic function (or monotone function) is a function between ordered sets that preserves the given order. This concept first arose in calculus, and was later generalized to the more abstract setting of order theory.
