Solution

The correct option is C behind
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.
The correct answer is option B) behind as it indicates a position just next in the line after the first one( a tree).
'In front of' , 'next to' and 'with' cannot be used here as they indicate a position before something, after something and inclusion of something/someone in an activity.
The animal was hiding behind a tree.
