A Correct answer
Explanation

The correct adverb is 'parallelly' formed from the adjective 'parallel' plus '-ly'. Option B drops one 'l', option C uses 'paralely' with only one 'l', and option D has both errors - shortened base and double 'l'. The full base word 'parallel' must be kept before adding '-ly'.
