Solution

The correct option is A

B3, B4 are in series
B1, B2 are in parallel


The current flowing through B3 is equal to that flowing through the B4. Therefore, B3 and B4 are in series.
The voltage across B1 and B2 are equal since they have two common points. Hence, they are in parallel connection.
