In an evolving network following the Barabási-Albert model, there are two nodes - node C with a degree of 15, and node D with a degree of 25. Given the preferential attachment characteristic of the model, how much more likely is a new node to connect to D than to C?


A. 0.6 times more likely

B. 1.6 times more likely

C. 2.5 times more likely

D. 1.7 times more likely

E. None of the above
