Answer: C
The Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) prevents bridging loops by
detecting and logically blocking redundant paths from the
network. The main function of STP is to allow redundant
paths without suffering the effects of loops in the network.

STP will identify the root and designated port for every
bridge. It will block all other ports from forwarding the
traffic. Once this is done, loops will be eliminated.
