If $a, b, c$ are unequal,what is the condition that the value of the following determinant is zero? $\Delta = \left| \begin{array}{ccc} a & a^2 & a^3 + 1 \\ b & b^2 & b^3 + 1 \\ c & c^2 & c^3 + 1 \end{array} \right|$

  • A
    $1 + abc = 0$
  • B
    $a + b + c + 1 = 0$
  • C
    $(a - b)(b - c)(c - a) = 0$
  • D
