Question
**Multiple choice.**

The figure shows a system of two equal-mass spheres connected by a massless rod. Select the correct ranking of the system's moments of inertia about axes passing through the three red points \( A \), \( B \), and \( C \).

(Here is a description of the diagram: Two equal-mass spheres are connected by a horizontal massless rod. The red points \( A \) and \( B \) are located on or near the rod, with \( A \) closer to the right sphere, and \( C \) on the left sphere.)

Available options:

- \( \circ \; I_A > I_B > I_C \)
- \( \circ \; I_B > I_C > I_A \)
- \( \circ \; I_C > I_A > I_B \)
- \( \circ \; I_B > I_A > I_C \)
- \( \circ \; I_A = I_B = I_C \)
