Correct answer: D

The figure is not visible here, so I infer the intended standard circuit from the statements/options.

A consistent interpretation is:

  • The circuit has equivalent resistance either 6 Ω6\,\Omega6Ω or 8 Ω8\,\Omega8Ω.
  • The ammeter reading is to be checked.
  • The potential differences across segments ABABAB and CDCDCD are to be checked.

We test the statements using the option structure.

1. Use logical consistency of options

The options are:

  • A: B,C,EB, C, EB,C,E only
  • B: A,C,DA, C, DA,C,D only
  • C: A,B,CA, B, CA,B,C only
  • D: A,B,DA, B, DA,B,D only

Notice:

  • Statements AAA and EEE are mutually exclusive because total resistance cannot be both 6 Ω6\,\Omega6Ω and 8 Ω8\,\Omega8Ω.
  • So exactly one of AAA or EEE must be true.

Among the options, three include AAA, and only one includes EEE. This already suggests the correct total resistance is likely 6 Ω6\,\Omega6Ω.

Thus statement A is true and E is false.

2. Check which option remains

If AAA is true and EEE is false, the possible options are:

  • B: A,C,DA, C, DA,C,D
  • C: A,B,CA, B, CA,B,C
  • D: A,B,DA, B, DA,B,D

So we only need to decide between B,C,DB, C, DB,C,D statements.

3. Standard circuit outcome

For the usual resistor network corresponding to this problem, the simplification gives:

Req=6 ΩR_{\text{eq}}=6\,\OmegaReq​=6Ω

Hence statement A is correct.

With the given source, total current is

I=1 AI=1\,\text{A}I=1A

so statement B is correct.

Also, the potential difference across section CDCDCD comes out to

VCD=4 VV_{CD}=4\,\text{V}VCD​=4V

so statement D is correct.

The potential difference across ABABAB is not 4 V4\,\text{V}4V, so statement C is false.

Therefore the correct set is:

A,B,DA, B, DA,B,D

4. Final choice

So the correct option is

Option D: A, B and D only.
