AI Explanation
The correct answer is C) can be adjusted or varied. The arrow superimposed on a hydraulic graphic symbol at approximately 45° indicates that the component can be adjusted or varied. This is a standard convention used in hydraulic diagrams to represent a variable or adjustable component, such as a valve or flow control device. The other answer choices are incorrect because: A) is not related to the hydraulic symbol, B) indicates a one-way check valve, and D) refers to a pressure-compensated component, which is a different characteristic not indicated by the 45° arrow symbol.
