Explanation:

An event schema (or script) is a mental framework for expected behaviors and sequences in specific social events. Darla’s knowledge of interview norms (dress code, questions, required documents) aligns with this framework. A concept is a general idea, a heuristic is a problem-solving shortcut, and a prototype is a typical example—none match the structured event knowledge here.

C) event schema
