Word C 'virtual' is appropriate in its place and requires no change. In the place of word A, an adjective is required to qualify the noun 'connections'. Accordingly, word B 'actual' is an adjective that can take the place of word A and qualify the noun 'connections'. In the place of word B, a preposition is required to connect the nouns 'virtual world' and 'real world'. Accordingly, word A 'between' is the preposition that can take the place of word B. Therefore, the correct order of the rearranged words is BAC.
The correct sentence is: There are no actual connections between the virtual and the real worlds.
Hence, the correct answer is option (c).
