Three thin rods,each of mass $M$ and length $L$,are placed along the $X$,$Y$,and $Z$ axes,which are mutually perpendicular. One end of each rod is at the origin. The moment of inertia of the system about the $Z$ axis is:

  • A
    $\frac{3 ML^2}{4}$
  • B
    $\frac{2 ML^2}{5}$
  • C
    $\frac{2 ML^2}{3}$
  • D
    $\frac{3 ML^2}{5}$
