Potential difference and power — practice question

The cross-sectional area of a metal wire is circular and changes as you move along its length. A current flows through the wire. The thinner end of the wire is at a reference potential taken as zero. Which graph most accurately shows how the potential difference $V$, relative to the zero reference, varies with distance $x$ along the wire?
