The the correct option is C. "A.C"
there can be any no. of arguments passed to fclose.
But which file is closes depends on the functionality of the comma(,) operator. It takes the first argument.

Please tell the correct answer (C) or (D). ?

The correct option is D only.
because the syntax of fclose is int fclose(FILE *stream); and we cannot use separator(,) in this.
if you use separator it will return an error as Extra parameter in call to fclose().

Inbuilt function fclose has a prototype fclose(FILE *stream) that is it can have only one parameter passed to it.
Take a simple example:-
u have a function "func(int);".
Now u cant call this function as
func();
or
func(i,j,k);
Function call should match with its prototype...
Take care :)

Because we cannot give many parameters inside fclose().

The correct option id D coz..
syntax of fclose is-
#include <stdio.h>
int fclose( FILE *stream );
The function fclose() closes the given file stream, deallocating any buffers associated with that stream. fclose() returns 0 upon success, and EOF otherwise.
thats why when we give too much parameter inside fclose() it gives error-too many arguments to function 'fclose'.

fclose() can close only one file at a time. If more than 1 argument than it will take only first and ignore rest.

To close all the files opened with fopen()at a time, we can use file function closeall(). This function has no arguments.
