    C) the percentage of a population having a particular exceptionality.

    Explanation:

    Prevalence is a statistical term used to express the total number of persons having a condition as a percentage of a particular population, at a particular period of time. For example, if stated that: the prevalence of autism as an exceptionality is put at 6% of the population of children in a state, it means 6 out of every 100 children in that state have autism as exceptionality.
