C. ferns.
Explanation:
The ferns are ancient plants that have managed to survive until the present. They are not closely related to the dominant plants nowadays, the flowering plants, but instead they are closely related with plants that have gone extinct tens and hundreds of millions years ago. Even though the ferns are not the dominant plants, they have managed to find a niche and firmly hold onto it, so they remained widespread, normally occupying the lower layers of the forests.
Unlike the flowering plants that produce flowers and then seeds in order to reproduce, that is not the case with the ferns. The ferns actually reproduce through spores, being widely dispersed by the wind and managing to spread out and reproduce over relatively large territory very quickly.
