Solution
The correct option is C Home
'Host' means an area in which particular plants or animals are found.
"Australia is host to some of the world's most dangerous animals"
In this context, "The Galapagos Islands are host to a variety of strange creatures", 'host' means home or shelter. Hence, option C is correct and the other options are not because they do not provide the appropriate information.
