Solution

The correct option is B The brightness of the individual bulb reduces.
A circuit has one bulb. If another is connected in series, resistance in the circuit increases. The current and the brightness of each of the bulbs would get reduced. Hence, the brightness of each of the two bulbs will be less than the brightness with which the single bulb was glowing earlier.
