C Correct answer
Explanation

A partnership firm is NOT a separate legal entity; it's the partners who collectively form it. Option A is wrong because partnerships don't have separate legal existence from partners. Option B is incorrect because firms (as entities) cannot form partnerships; only individuals can. Option C correctly states that partners from an individual firm (persons, not the firm) can form a partnership.
