Yes I agree it is parabola since the dead load of the beam is UDL.
Diwakar said:

Yes I think parabola is correct answer.

In a theory it states that beam linear before application of load (self weight is neglected) so linear is correct.

I think Parabola answer is correct.

Linear is correct. Self weight of beam act as point load at its center as in case of ssb, hence bending moment is linear in variation.

Parabola is correct answer because when any external load is not subjected to the beam so beam is acting only self weight and self weight is always in the form of udl and we known that for udl loading bmd is parabolic and smd is inclined.

If self with neglected then answer will be linear.
But if self with include answer will be parabola.
But if self with include answer will be parabola.

If the beam having no external load then self weight will be act as udl throughout the entire span, for that reason the BM diagram will be parabola.

For finding bending moment and shear force in the beam, we do not consider the self-weight of the beam that why in the case of no external load. Bending moment diagram will linear.

In the calculation of bending moment and shear force, we do not consider the self-weight of the beam. So linear is correct.
