Answer:

C) The students line up in the afternoon to wait for the buses to arrive.

Step-by-step explanation:

When you read the sentences aloud, it makes it easier to tell where there are unnecessary pauses like after "to wait", "in the afternoon", and "the students", so that makes me believe that the statement with no commas is the correct one.
