From relation E=\rho \mathrm{J}, the magnitude of electric field is greater in right rod as compared to left rod. Therefore, magnitude of potential gradient in the right rod is greater

Also the graph of potential variation with distance is continuous 

Therefore, the variation is shown by the figure.
