C) is a term that is synonymous with rotation in office.

Explanation:

The Spoils system was a system that gave victorious parties the right to distributed administrative offices to its own party members and supporters. Similar to the change in the elective members of the government, the spoils system was also based on the concept of 'rotation in office'. According to spoils system, the administrative offices and positions can be filled by the members of victorious party. The failure to separate administration from politics gave provisions to spoils system.
