C Correct answer
Explanation

Bridges operate in both physical and datalink layers. So, the layer supports a data link layer (layer 2). Bridges work at the Data Link Layer of the OSI model because they work at this layer, all information contained in the higher levels of the OSI model is unavailable to them. Therefore, they do not distinguish between one protocol and another.
