Four cells, each of emf $E$ and internal resistance $r$, are connected in series across an external resistance $R$. By mistake, one of the cells is connected in reverse. Then the current in the external circuit is

  • A
    $\frac{2 E}{4 r+R}$
  • B
    $\frac{3 E}{4 r+R}$
  • C
    $\frac{3 E}{3 r+R}$
  • D
    $\frac{2 E}{3 r+R}$
