Solution

The correct option is C Off
A preposition is a word which comes before a noun or a pronoun and establishes a relationship between the elements of a clause or words. Option C)off is correct as it means away from. The other options are wrong as of, by, and up indicate possession, usage, and a movement towards a higher point respectively. These uses don't fit in the given question. The correct answer is C)off.
