C Correct answer

Perpetual means never-ending, constant, or continuing forever. Intermittent means occurring at irregular intervals, not continuous, or stopping and starting - the direct opposite. Antecedent, coincident, precipitous, and languorous don't convey the idea of something that stops and starts.
