Answer:

Option C is the correct option. Which is, "Carbon forms covalent bonds with other carbon atoms".

Step-by-step explanation:

Carbon's ability of catenation makes it unique and suitable for the formation of macromolecules.

Catenation is the Characteristic of atoms of the same element to form longer chains. Catenation occurs most readily in carbon, which forms covalent bonds with other carbon atoms to form longer chains and structures. This is the reason for the presence of the carbon in all organic compounds.
