(a) The potential difference is the same across both resistors and the current through each resistor is the same.
(b) The current is the same through both resistors and the potential difference across 6Ω is greater than that across 4Ω.
(c) The current is the same through both resistors and the potential difference across 4Ω is greater than that across 6Ω.
(d) The potential difference is the same across both resistors and the current through 4Ω is greater than that through 6Ω.
