Answer:

C. Neither

Explanation:

The permutation is a selection of objects from a given sample in an ordered manner .

The combination is a selection of objects from a given sample irrespective of an order of arrangement.

The given line of people is neither an ordered arrangement of​ objects, nor a selection of objects from a group of objects So it fits neither of the combinations or permutations.

So the best answer is neither.
