c. to explain why certain animals can see in the dark and how it benefits them

Explanation:

The article's title is "Why do cats' eyes glow in the dark?" which is about explaining the ability of certain animals (like cats) to see in the dark and its benefits. Option A focuses only on why cats need it more, which is not the main purpose. Option B is about helping pet owners determine, which is not the focus. Option D suggests most animals will develop the ability, which is not supported. Option C matches the purpose of explaining the ability and its benefits.

Answer:

C. to explain why certain animals can see in the dark and how it benefits them
