    The correct answer would be option C.

    Competition is a type of ecological interaction between organisms of the same or different species in which they compete with each other for the same resources.

    Examples of same resources may include territory, water, food (such as same prey), et cetera.

    Similarly, in option C, lions and hyenas live in the same ecosystem and consume the same prey. Thus, the interaction between lion and hyenas is competition.
