Solution

The correct option is C voltage-drop is same across both
In parallel connection, all the elements are connected between same two points hence the voltage drop across any number of resistors or other elements connected in parallel is same. Hence C is correct.

The resistances are connected in series such that same(equal) electric current flows through each resistance.	The resistances are connected in parallel. So that the voltage drop through each resistance is same.
Equivalent resistance is more than every resistance connected in series.	Equivalent resistance is smaller than every resistance connected in parallel.
