Answer:

c.

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the scenario being described within the question it can be said that the best method for this would be cooking vegetables in minimal water for a brief period. That is because water-soluble vitamins dissolve and dissapear in water. Therefore using the least amount of water possible and for the least amount of times allows these vitamins to be preserved.
