C Correct answer
Explanation

Continuity of species means that generation after generation, the species continue to survive and this is ensured by reproduction. Nutrition can ensure life of an organism but cannot form a new organism. Variation and speciation are related processes of reproduction and refer to the changes that organisms develop during reproduction but they themselves cannot maintain continuity of species without reproduction.
