C Correct answer
Explanation

Horse evolution shows two major adaptations: limb structure changed from multi-toed forest browsers to single-toed plains runners, and teeth evolved from browsing teeth to high-crowned grazing teeth adapted to abrasive grasses. While tail reduction occurred, and height increased, the limbs and teeth were the primary evolutionary changes driven by habitat shifts.
