The solution is supersaturated. The answer is letter C.

A supersaturated solution has more dissolved solute in it than what it would normally have. This could be achieved if you dissolve more solute while heating the solution. However, once the solution cools, crystallization would occur. As a result, you see crystals settling at the bottom.
