C Correct answer
Explanation

Ring topology is not broadcast because data flows sequentially from one node to the next in a unidirectional manner. Each node receives and forwards the signal to its single downstream neighbor. In contrast, star and tree broadcast from the central node, and bus broadcasts on the shared medium to all connected nodes simultaneously.
