                Total energy line is the sum of HGL and velocity. Therefore it's the line which lies by the amount of pressure +velocity.
So option C is correct.
                So option C is correct.

                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.

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