Solution

The correct option is D Cannot be zero
The resultant for three or more vector lying in different planes can never be zero, as resultant for first two vectors $(A and B)$ will be in the same plane as them but the third vector $(C)$ is in different plane.
Hence since the vectors doesn't lie in the same plane, the resultant of two vectors cannot be equal and opposite to the third vector and resultant can't be zero.
