Solution

The correct option is D All of the above
Lateral inversion is defined as the apparent reversal of the image's left and right when compared with the object. Plane mirror and convex mirror always forms a laterally inverted image of the object. In case of concave mirror, if the object is placed between pole and focus, then the image formed is virtual, it will be laterally inverted. Therefore, all the three mirrors can form laterally inverted image.
for example, for plane mirror plane
