The answer is: C. They originated in the 1800s as competitions at the completion of cattle drives.

Rodeos originated in the 1800s from cattle herders who had the specific skills of working as cowboys or "vaqueros". These skills were honed to the point of creating competitions and contests, therefore, making rodeos more than entertainment, a form of professional sport.
