The correct answer is option D.
Fixed support in the real beam becomes a free end in the conjugate beam and vice versa.
Internal Hinge connection in real beam becomes simple support in conjugate beam and vice versa.
Simple support at the edge remains the same for both real and conjugate beams.
Fixed support in the real beam becomes a free end in the conjugate beam and vice versa.
