The correct answer is:
CHECK THE SOLUTION.

(b, c)

the potential difference between end points may becomes zero.

the potential difference between end points may becomes 2V.

When terminal B is connected with terminal C

V A – V D = 2V

When terminal B is connected with terminal D

V A – V C = 0

The energy stored in the system remains same.
