C Correct answer
Explanation

Air traffic control light signals: flashing green (option C) means 'cleared to taxi' for aircraft on the ground. Steady green (B) is 'cleared for takeoff' in flight. Flashing white (A) means 'return to starting point' on ground. Steady white (D) is 'ground vehicle - move clear of runway/taxiway'. Answer C is correct - flashing green from the tower gives permission to taxi on the ground. This is standard aviation light signal procedure.
