    D float.

    Explanation:

    Here, neutrally buoyant in fresh water

    Now,

    since the specific gravity of salt water is higher than the specific gravity of the fresh water therefore, the salt water will apply more buoyant force on the object.

    And as the object is neutral in fresh water, more buoyant force will make the object float in the salt water.
