This seems straightforward. "A" is the only answer that involves putting instances in more than one zone! A. Yes, creating instances in another zone and balancing the loads will fix this problem B. Wrong. This keeps all the instances in one zone, but the question says we want to protect against zone failures. C. Wrong. This keeps all the instances in one zone, but the question says we want to protect against zone failures. D. Wrong. This keeps all the instances in one zone, but the question says we want to protect against zone failures.

Option A. Create VMs across more than one region and zone so that you have alternative VMs to point to if a zone or region containing one of your VMs is disrupted. If you host all your VMs in the same zone or region, you won't be able to access any of those VMs if that zone or region becomes unreachable. https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/tutorials/robustsystems#distribute

Why not "B" selecting "Regional (multi zone)" ? "Regional (multiple zone) coverage. Regional MIGs let you spread app load across multiple zones. This replication protects against zonal failures. If that happens, your app can continue serving traffic from instances running in the remaining available zones in the same region." https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/instance-groups/
