Resistance and resistivity — practice question

Three wires are joined one after another to form a conductor. Although each wire is made from the same metal, their cross-sectional areas are different. A current $I$ flows through the conductor. At point Y on the conductor, the potential is zero. Which graph most accurately shows how potential $V$ changes with distance along the conductor?
