For that particular sentence, the grammatically correct answer is D. As the sentence is written, you are forced to select only one option among A, B, or C - which would commit a significant error of omission by not including the other 2 word representations.
I would suggest re-phrasing the sentence as follows:
"Two," "too," and "to" are the only three representations in the English language of the word pronounced as "tu" when phonetically using the long "u" sound.

D This is an example of a statement that can be spoken, but not written, since when you speak, you're only making the generic long u sound, but when you're writing, you're actually spelling a specific word and there really aren't 3 two's (or to's or too's) - there is only 1 two, and 1 to and 1 too. The same would apply to there, their, they're or cite, site, sight or any "triplet" (or any pair of homonyms, for that matter).
