    Given below are two statements$:$

    Statement $I:$ Biot-Savart's law gives us the expression for the magnetic field strength of an infinitesimal current element (IdI) of a current carrying conductor only.

    Statement $II :$ Biot-Savart's law is analogous to Coulomb's inverse square law of charge $q$, with the former being related to the field produced by a scalar source, Idl while the latter being produced by a vector source, $q$. In light of above statements choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
