Answer: The correct answer is "C) Capacity to contract".

Explanation: In this scenario, the "Capacity to contract" element has probably been lost because the Capacity to contract is the ability of a person to enter into valid contracts, and Linda, not being over 18, lacks the capacity to contract.
