C Correct answer
Explanation

EIGRP maintains multiple databases: the routing table (best paths), neighbor table (adjacent routers), and topology table (all learned routes). Feasible successors - backup paths with loop-free guarantee - are stored specifically in the topology table. The routing table only contains the successor (best) routes, while feasible successors remain in the topology table as backup options that can be immediately promoted if the successor fails.
