An ellipse is drawn by taking a diameter of the circle `(x-1)^(2) + y^(2) = 1 ` as its semi-minor axis and a diameter of the the circle `x^(2) +(y - 2)^(2) = 4` as its sem-major axis . If the centre of the ellipse is at the origin and its axes are the coordinate axes , then the equation of the ellipse is _

A

`4x^(2) + y^(2) = 8 `

B

`x^(2) + 4y^(2) = 16 `

C

`4x^(2) + y^(2) = 4 `
