Explanation:

John Locke believed in natural rights like life, liberty, and property. He also supported the social - contract theory where the government's power comes from the consent of the governed and should protect people's rights. Option C shows a king violating the property rights of farmers for the benefit of the wealthy, which goes against Locke's ideas.

Answer:

C. A king forces farmers to send him most of their crops to be distributed among wealthy nobles.
