On wet surfaces, the car slips when it's just about to move and skids as well when sudden brakes are applied and also may overturn after skidding at a higher speed if the tyre is suddenly encountered by a dry surface or a stone.
So, The correct answer should be D.
So, The correct answer should be D.

If your vehicle is in motion then there is less possibility of slip. As for slip Tyre should revolve more than axial distance and it will happen when you accelerate. So, I think the answer should be Skid.

In my point of my view, Skid is generally produced when centrifugal force creates. That's why B is the correct answer.

As the wheel is in moving conditions their is a lack of frictional forces along the wheel and the surface.

Always on wet pavement surface occur slip of moving vehicle and only dry pavement surface occur skidding.

Yes, it should be skid because the longitudinal distance is more as compared to circumferential distance.

Skidding happens on dry surfaces when brakes are applied while slipping occurs on wet surfaces.

Both can occur obviously. Slipping will also be more as compared to that of dry pavement.

Slip is correct because Skid is controlled by the automobile. Not by friction.

If vehicle already moving then Skid.
If trying to move from rest then slip.
If trying to move from rest then slip.
