Answer:

D. The current is the same across all resistors in the circuit.

Step-by-step explanation:

Two or more resistors are linked together in a line to create a series circuit. Any individual resistor cannot match the equivalent resistance of the circuit. The current drops when more resistors are introduced. Each resistor is subject to a distinct voltage. The circuit's current stays constant.
