only host D
only hosts A, B, C, and D
only hosts B and C
only hosts B, C, and router R1
only hosts A, B, and C
only router R1

Explanation: Because host A does not have the MAC address of the default gateway in the ARP table, host A sends an ARP broadcast. The ARP broadcast would be sent to every device on the local network. Hosts B, C, and router R1 would receive the broadcast. Router R1 would not forward the message.
