Both sides of the variometer's measuring system receive the same trapped pressure, so no pressure difference develops.

23772911 The correct answer is C because the diagram shows, from left to right, the airspeed indicator (ASI), altimeter, and a vane variometer — the standard "basic T" arrangement in a glider cockpit. A and B incorrectly identify the order of the ASI and altimeter and misidentify the variometer type.

23792913 - **D** is wrong because an oxygen pressure gauge is a separate ancillary instrument typically mounted elsewhere, not part of the standard flight instrument panel layout.
