Explanation:

The Mid - Atlantic Ridge is a divergent plate boundary. At divergent boundaries, new crust is formed as magma rises to fill the gap between the separating plates. Location C is closest to the Mid - Atlantic Ridge. As new crust is formed at the ridge (through volcanic activity associated with the divergent plate boundary), the bedrock near the ridge is the youngest.

Answer:

C
