Answer:

option D

Step-by-step explanation:

the correct answer is option D

residual check valves are used on drum brakes system to maintain the low pressure inside the brake system even after the break paddle is released.

This low maintenance of pressure will not allow air to enter in the breaking system.

So, a residual check valves helps keep wheel cylinder sealing cups tight against the wheel cylinder to prevent air entrance.
