When we have the boolean variables A and B and we want to analyze the disjuction A OR B, this sentence will be true if at least one of the two variables is true.

This way, the truth table is:

A B A OR B

T T T

T F T

F T T

F F F

(The sentence only is false when both variables are false).

In the same way, if we add a third variable C and we want to analyze A OR B OR C, the sentence only is false if all three variables are false.

Also, when constructing a truth table, the normal procedure is switching first the last variable, then going from the right to the left, so the first variable will be switched only one time:

A B C

T T T

T T F

T F T

T F F

F T T

F T F

F F T

F F F

Therefore the correct option is C.
