Correct option is C
EBCDIC (Extended Binary Coded Decimal Interchange Code) uses an 8-bit encoding scheme to represent characters. Each character in the EBCDIC code is encoded using 8 bits, allowing for a total of 256 possible characters.
7-bit: Used by ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange).
2-bit: Insufficient to represent a wide range of characters.
16-bit: Used in other character encoding schemes such as Unicode.
Therefore, the correct answer is (c) 8-bit.
