 The answer is C.  Because, resource leveling generally extends the timelines.  In this case, the PM wants to keep the project timelines under control.

The answer is not B because in the case of choice B, the resource is overloaded.  Hence, it needs leveling.

Answer A and D are also not correct, because in A the resource is intermittently used.  So, it should be leveled.  In D, the resource is working on multiple projects and so, there is a good possibility of resource being overloaded.
