Sonika is working with the circuit shown in the figure. There are two open terminals in the circuit: $X$ and $Y$. She has wires made of five different materials: $I, II, III, IV,$ and $V$. She knows that the electric bulb will glow only when wires made of conducting materials are connected across both open terminals. She records her observations in a table. After the experiment,ink spills on the paper,and she loses the information for the third row.
$S.No.$Material at $X$Material at $Y$Electric Bulb ($ON$/$OFF$)
$1$$I$$II$$OFF$
$2$$I$$IV$$ON$
$3$--$OFF$
$4$$III$$V$$ON$

Based on the remaining information in the table,which materials could be in the third row?

  • A
    $II$ and $III$
  • B
    $III$ and $IV$
  • C
    $IV$ and $V$
  • D
    $I$ and $III$
