Solution

The correct option is C Temperature
According to the Le Chatelier's principle, the changes in concentration, pressure and temperature of the system will cause a shift in the chemical equilibrium. This shift is caused due to the system trying to readjust itself to nullify the effect of the change and attaining a new equilibrium state.

A catalyst does not causes a shift in the equilibrium. It helps the system to reach equilibrium faster.
