Answer:

C. the substance in which the solute dissolves

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two terms in this... the solute and the solvent. The way I learned how to remember this is with a little pirate analogy: The loot (stolen treasure) always goes in the vent. So, the soLUTE goes in the solVENT.
