If you run terraform apply again immediately afterwards without changing any Terraform code, Terraform will compare the desired state with the actual state of the infrastructure as recorded in the state file. Since there are no changes, then Terraform will report that there are no differences and won't do anything.

D is the correct answer. Terraform would refresh and see that the current state and the desired state are the-same and hence would do nothing
