The correct answer is C. When you make quotes from the original paper, there is no problem to divide the quote and to add it separately. It is meaningful because may be the writer just wants to analyze the parts of the quote independently. Therefore, when you divide the quote into 2 or 3 parts, the remaining parts are also the parts of the original quote and you don't have to begin them with a capital letter.

When a quoted statement is divided : c. the second part is not capitalized

Basically, what division of a quoted statement is the continuation of the statement. There form, the second part of the division is still the same part of the sentence and does not need to be capitalized
