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 circle `x^2 + (y – 2)^2 = 4` as its semi-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`

D

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