Correct answer: A

The circuit diagram is not actually visible in the provided prompt, so the exact computation of IzI_zIz​ from circuit values cannot be reconstructed directly.

However, since this is clearly a Zener-diode current question from electronic devices, the intended method would normally be:

  1. Find the current through the series resistor I=Vsource−VZRI = \frac{V_{\text{source}} - V_Z}{R}I=RVsource​−VZ​​

  2. Split that current between load current and Zener current I=IL+IZI = I_L + I_ZI=IL​+IZ​ so IZ=I−ILI_Z = I - I_LIZ​=I−IL​

  3. Match the obtained value with the given options.

Because the actual circuit values are missing, an exact derivation is impossible from the text alone. The only available reliable reference is the stored correct answer, which states option A.

Hence, IZ=25 mAI_Z = 25\ \text{mA}IZ​=25 mA

So the correct option is A.
