Two identical spherical balls of mass $M$ and radius $R$ each are stuck on two ends of a rod of length $2R$ and mass $M$ (see figure). The moment of inertia of the system about the axis passing perpendicularly through the centre of the rod is

  • A
    $\frac{137}{15}MR^2$
  • B
    $\frac{17}{15}MR^2$
  • C
    $\frac{209}{15}MR^2$
  • D
    $\frac{152}{15}MR^2$
