Suppose that the $x$-coordinates of the points $A$ and $B$ satisfy $x^2+2x-a^2=0$ and their $y$-coordinates satisfy $y^2+4y-b^2=0$. Then,the equation of the circle with $AB$ as its diameter is

  • A
    $x^2+y^2+2x+4y-a^2-b^2=0$
  • B
    $x^2+y^2+2x+4y+a^2+b^2=0$
  • C
    $x^2+y^2-2x-4y-a^2-b^2=0$
  • D
    $x^2+y^2-2x-4y+a^2+b^2=0$
