Solution

The correct option is A fused
An electric fuse is a thin metal wire connecting the main electrical supply to the household appliances. Comparing that with a bulb, the filament is a crucial component of the bulb. When it is broken or disconnected, the bulb doesn't glow anymore. Then it is said to be 'fused'.
