Please explain it.

A diode in a reverse-biased condition is open.

Jeddy said:   4 years ago
Because there is no current in reverse bias.

Isael said:   7 years ago
The voltage across the diode under reverse bias operation is the maximum voltage supply.

Pravin said:   1 decade ago
Since reverse biased voltage varies from zener to other, it may not be a fixed voltage.

Because of the forward voltage drop across diode is .7 volt so the answer b is correct.
