Answer C is correct  –  heterozygous
Heterozygous is a state of having inherited different forms of a particular gene from each one of your biological parents. Now, by different forms we generally mean that there are different portions of the gene where the sequence is different.

A monohybrid cross between a parent that is homozygous dominant and a parent that is homozygous recessive for a particular trait produces offspring that are all heterozygous for that trait.
