Explanation:

The British introduced the tank in World War 1 because they hoped to break the stalemate by successfully conquering No Man's Land. Option C is correct.

Tanks were used for the first time during the Battle of the Somme in 1916.  The British turned to tanks as one way to cross the No Man`s Land and break through the enemy trench system.
