Answer:

Option (C)

Explanation:

Coquina is usually defined as a sedimentary limestone rock that is found to be present in the freshwater zones and in the coastal areas. This rock is made up of broken shells that are smaller in size. The rocks can be easily broken down by the constant flowing of sea waves.  

This rock is commonly formed in the same way as the other sedimentary rocks, i.e. it is formed by the deposition of sediments carrying these organic remains and eventually undergoes the process of compaction and lithification on the seafloor.

Thus, the correct answer is option (C).
