Answer:

C. is the dystopian quality of this passage: Power is based on the ability to obtain a necessity of life.

Explanation:

Dystopian fiction is social commentary in the form of a story that exaggerates one aspect of today's society.

People who have the most access to essentials will always have power over those who do not. This is the exaggerated aspect. It shows a piece of our everyday lives under a microscope, so we can say "hey, this doesn't seem right."
