C Correct answer
Explanation

Third generation computers (1960s) used Integrated Circuits (ICs) - multiple transistors fabricated on a single silicon chip. This replaced the discrete transistors used in second generation computers. Vacuum tubes (Option B) were first generation, Large scale integration (Option A, LSI) was fourth generation, and Transistors (Option D) were second generation.
