It will throw a CIDR overlaps error

D.
It is not possible to create a subnet with the same CIDR as VPC

Explanation:
A Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) is a virtual network dedicated to the user’s AWS account. A user
can create a subnet with VPC and launch instances inside that subnet. The user can create a
subnet with the same size of VPC. However, he cannot create any other subnet since the CIDR
of the second subnet will conflict with the first subnet.
