The statement given to us is: "Construct the diameter of the circle and label the endpoints as P and Q. Set the compass to be wider than the radius of the circle and construct a perpendicular bisector of the segment PQ."

These are the starting steps of the construction of "a square inscribed in a circle."

Thus, out of the given options, Option C is the correct option.
