C Correct answer
Explanation

Anaerobic exercise involves short, intense activity where energy demands exceed oxygen supply. Sprinting is a classic example - it requires maximum effort over short durations (10-60 seconds) and relies on anaerobic glycolysis. Walking and cycling are typically aerobic at moderate intensities, and holding breath underwater is not an exercise.
