Which option, if any, is the default option to enable Maintenance Mode on a vSAN host?
The default option to enable Maintenance Mode on a vSAN host is 'Ensure accessibility.' This option ensures that all accessible virtual machines on the host remain accessible during maintenance. It is appropriate if you plan to have the host back in the cluster after performing tasks such as upgrades.
Answer is A https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-vSphere/7.0/com.vmware.vsphere.vsan.doc/GUID-521EA4BC-E411-47D4-899A-5E0264469866.html Ensure accessibility This is the default option. When you power off or remove the host from the cluster, vSAN ensures that all accessible virtual machines on this host remain accessible. Select this option if you want to take the host out of the cluster temporarily, for example, to install upgrades, and plan to have the host back in the cluster. This option is not appropriate if you want to remove the host from the cluster permanently.
A - checked now on my vSAN Cluster :)

The Answer is A. Ensure Accessibility is the default setting.
I think there is a confusion here, there 2 ways to understand this question: 1- What is the default option for entering MM with no user interaction/confirmation? 2- What is the default option shown selected in the pop up of Entering MM for a particular node? Number 1 sound more logical form me, I agree with @imstaceysdad. So D is the right answer.
I'd say D. 'Ensure accessibility' is populated in the field when enable Maintenance Mode, but you have to select an option to proceed with the host going into Maintenance Mode.
