The right answer is B (the second option, B flows slower).

Viscosity can be defined as the set of phenomena of resistance to flow occurring in the mass of a material, for a uniform flow and without turbulence. The higher the viscosity, and the more easily the fluid's ability to flow, the greater the energy dissipated by the flow.
