  • A(a)
  • B(b)
  • C(d)
  • D(c)

Step-by-Step Solution

Folding gives the opposite pairs P–T, Q–S and R–U, and none of the four cubes shows an opposite pair together. But at the corner where S, T and U meet, the folded net reads S → T → U (top, left, right), while (c) reads S → U → T: a mirror image, so (c) cannot be made.
Answer: D) (c)
