1. Key idea about the diode pair

   Two ideal diodes connected in parallel but in opposite directions act like a two-way short circuit:

   • for any polarity, one diode becomes forward biased,
   • an ideal forward-biased diode has zero resistance / zero voltage drop.

   Hence, this diode combination behaves as a wire (short circuit) between its two terminals.

2. Effect on the given circuit

   Therefore, the branch containing the oppositely connected ideal diodes offers no voltage drop.

   So the current in the circuit is determined only by the source voltage and the series resistance present in the circuit.

3. Using Ohm's law

   From the circuit, the effective resistance is just the resistor in series, so $I=\frac{V}{R}$

   Substituting the circuit values gives $I=2.00\,\text{A}$

4. Checking options

   • A: $1.71\,\text{A}$ ❌
   • B: $2.00\,\text{A}$ ✅
   • C: $2.31\,\text{A}$ ❌
   • D: $1.33\,\text{A}$ ❌

Therefore, the correct answer is Option B.
