Answer:

None of these less than the resistance of either lamp.

Step-by-step explanation:

When resistors are connected in parallel, the total resistance decreases compared to the resistance of either individual lamp. The combined resistance is lower because the current has multiple pathways to flow through. Therefore, the battery senses a resistance that is lower than the resistance of either lamp.
