D.

Explanation:

In a plane mirror, image and object are symmetrical to each other. This type of mirror does not "flip" the image vertically.

Also, image and object must be at the same distance to the mirror. This menas that the arrow's tip should be located "one square" away from the mirror and, the bottom part of the arrow, "two squares" away (just like the object). This leaves option D.
