Electric circuits — practice question

In the diagram, a cell is connected to two $6.0\,\Omega$ resistors. The currents $I_1$, $I_2$ and $I_3$ are marked. Which row gives the correct comparison of $I_2$ and $I_3$ with $I_1$?

  • A$I_2$ same as $I_1$; $I_3$ same as $I_1$
  • B$I_2$ same as $I_1$; $I_3$ smaller than $I_1$
  • C$I_2$ smaller than $I_1$; $I_3$ same as $I_1$
  • D$I_2$ smaller than $I_1$; $I_3$ smaller than $I_1$
