Option C

Explanation:

Ophelia is rendered clueless between two challenging impulses.

On one side, her loyalty lies with her father where her father doesn't want her to be with Hamlet and on the other hand was Hamlet .

She was exploited of her mental piece at the hands of her father as well as Claudius.

Moreover, the tragic death of her father deprived her of her mental health. The grief of her father's death was empowering her. Her mental state was deteriorating as she wander untidy, sad, disordered and growingly mad and singing weird stuff like she sings a song which refers to the incident where Christ transforms a baker into an owl after the refusal of bread to him. Owl, here also symbolizes death, virginity and darkness.
