The correct answer is:
D

Pressure in a static fluid will be same at each point on same horizontal level.

P = P 0 +

where P 0 is atmospheric pressure.

Pascal's law states that pressure applied to enclosed water is transmitted equally in all directions. Hence, both the statements are true and this is the right option.
