C Correct answer
Explanation

A hydraulic lift works on Pascal's law, which states that pressure applied to a confined fluid is transmitted undiminished in all directions. This allows a small force on a small piston to create a large force on a large piston, enabling heavy loads to be lifted with minimal effort.
