DIODE neither reverse bias nor forward bias. The reason behind is no source (voltage or current) connected. So diode act as a normal component.

So answer "C" is correct.

Puneet thakral explaination is correct.

Answer [c] is correct. But actual reason behind this we are using multimeter not a voltage source or excitation source so neither it is in the state of forward bias nor reverse bias it acting as a normal component in which we don't apply any input.

So answer[c] is correct.

Since the negative terminal connected to p side the diode must be open circuited.

Diode is in reverse biased so it provide higher resistance,so it is normal behavior of diode,so nothing wrong with diode so answer is [c]

Diode is in revers biased and hence reflecting the resistance in Megohm. It is normal behavior of a diode, nothing is wrong with Diode. So answer should be [C] nothing.
