Why each option
The float of a path indicates the amount of time it can be delayed without affecting the project's overall completion date.
The path Start-A-D-end is the critical path, which by definition is the longest path through the project network diagram and therefore has zero total float. Any delay on the critical path directly impacts the project's end date.
A float of one means the path can be delayed by one unit of time without delaying the project, which is not true for a critical path.
A float of five means the path can be delayed by five units of time without delaying the project, which is not true for a critical path.
A float of nineteen means the path can be delayed by nineteen units of time without delaying the project, which is not true for a critical path.
