Why each option
Flip 3D is a Windows Aero feature that requires the Aero Glass interface, which is only available in certain Windows editions - Windows 7 Professional supports it while the other listed editions do not.
Windows XP predates the Aero interface entirely and has no Flip 3D feature; it uses Alt+Tab as its window switcher.
Windows 7 Professional includes the full Windows Aero experience, which includes Flip 3D (activated via Win+Tab). Aero Glass requires a capable GPU and a qualifying Windows 7 edition - Professional, Ultimate, and Enterprise all qualify, giving users the full visual interface including Flip 3D.
Windows Vista Home Basic explicitly excludes the Aero Glass theme and Flip 3D - it uses Windows Vista Basic interface only.
Windows 7 Starter does not support the Aero Glass theme and therefore does not include Flip 3D functionality.
