The correct answer on Novanet is the one that is NOT capitalized after the colon.

B and C look identical to me, so any of those two answers would be the correct one.
You have to use a colon before a list, where you numerate many items. So, here, you have to use the colon after the word activities:
My friend Antonio is involved in many activities: the environmental club, soccer, and martial arts.
