Functional equation for f on the half-line

Let f:[0,∞)→[0,∞)f : [0, \infty) \to [0, \infty) be a differentiable function with f(x)>0f(x) > 0 for all x>0x > 0, and f(0)=0f(0) = 0. Further, ff satisfies (f(x))2=∫0x((f(t))2+f(t)) dt,x>0(f(x))^2 = \int_{0}^{x} ((f(t))^2 + f(t)) \, dt, \quad x > 0. Then which one of the following options is correct?
