Solution

The correct option is C

Straight lines parallel to each other


When the key is taken out, there is no current through the straight conductor. Hence, there is no magnetic field due to it in the plane ABCD. Only Earth's magnetic field, which is uniform, is present in the plane ABCD and the field lines due to it are straight lines parallel to each other.
