c. trans

Explanation:

Answer:

Without seeing the clear - cut structures of A, B and C in a non - blurry way, it's impossible to accurately determine the cis - trans isomerism. However, the general rule for cis - trans isomerism in organic compounds (when applicable) is that in cis isomers, the two similar or related groups are on the same side of the double bond or ring structure, while in trans isomers, the two similar or related groups are on the opposite sides of the double bond or ring structure. If we assume ideal conditions and could clearly view the structures:

1. For a double - bond or ring - based structure, check the position of the relevant groups.
2. If the key groups are on the same side, it's cis; if on opposite sides, it's trans.

If we had clear structures:

Step1: Identify the key groups in each isomer

For example, if we have a double - bonded compound with two substituents on each carbon of the double bond, the substituents are the key groups.

Step2: Determine the relative position of the key groups

Check if they are on the same side (cis) or opposite sides (trans) of the double bond or ring.

Since the image is blurry and the structures of A, B and C are not clearly visible, we cannot give a definite multiple - choice answer from the options provided.

If the structures were clear, we would follow the above steps to analyze each isomer (A, B, C) one by one and then select the correct multiple - choice option based on our analysis.
