Correct answer: A
Explanation
Pressure drop is proportional to viscosity. Since the new liquid has a different viscosity than water, and assuming it's higher or lower in a way that increases drag compared to the initial state (or simply because viscosity change affects pressure drop), the pressure drop will change. Given the options and typical fluid dynamics problems where changing fluid properties affect resistance, 'Increase' is selected.
