The Third Amendment (C) is in direct response to the Quartering Act which was imposed by the British during Colonial Times. The Third Amendment prohibits soldiers from being quartered in the homes of Americans without their consent in times of peace.

The Third Amendment of the United States Constitution directly responds to the Quartering Act by prohibiting the government from forcing citizens to house soldiers in their homes, especially during peacetime. Ratified in 1791, it underscores the importance of individual privacy and property rights. Thus, the correct answer to the question is C. The Third Amendment.
