Respuesta :

Colons are used in a sentence to introduce a single item or a list of items. For example, The fruits that the grocery store had available were: bananas, apples, oranges and grapes. The same listing can be carried out with one item per line of the list. Therefore, the answer is C. A colon only introduces a list.
