Answer:

C.) Brachiation

Step-by-step explanation:

Brachiation or arm swinging is a form of arboreal locomotion in which the animal swings from one branch to the other, using only their arms, this form of locomotion in the long evolutionary term is related to shorter legs as they are less heavy, and allow better swinging, and stable lumbar spines that counteract with the movement, for it not to get deformed with the constant swinging.
