Final answer:

Ground spoilers fully extend when the aircraft is on the ground to assist in deceleration during landing.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct answer is C) When the aircraft is on the ground. Ground spoilers are devices on the wings of an aircraft that help reduce lift and increase drag during landing to assist in deceleration. They are automatically deployed when the wheels are on the ground, helping to slow down the aircraft.
