Answer:

C) Seasonal

Step-by-step explanation:

A seasonal pattern time series can be a season (hence the name), a month, or even a day. What is important is that the the unit of time in which the data is taken needs to be the most important factor in determining the results.

In this example, the day tuesday is what determines the number of customers at the grocery store.
