Solution

The correct option is B the level of the liquid in the two vessels are at the same height
Siphon is a device to transfer liquid from a higher level to a lower level. So there will be no such case when the level of the liquid in both vessels is same, otherwise it will not work. So siphon will fail to work if the level of the liquid in the two vessels are at the same height.
