                Agree, it is dynamic head or velocity head.

                Velocity head is the difference between total energy line and hydraulic gradient line, not the center line.

                Agree @Siva Kumar.
Option A is correct.
                Option A is correct.

                Potential Head + Piezometric Head is the HGL. None of the answers is correct. HCL is (EGL- velocity head).

                Answer A is correct.
Hydraulic gradient line lies over the centre line of the pipe means it is equal to the pressure head Z+Pressure head lies on center of the pipe line. Then it means that total pressure head lies on center of the pipe.
                Hydraulic gradient line lies over the centre line of the pipe means it is equal to the pressure head Z+Pressure head lies on center of the pipe line. Then it means that total pressure head lies on center of the pipe.
