Solution

The correct option is C
Ozonolysis splits the alkene into aldehyde or ketones by oxidative cleavage.

The products of ozonolysis, acetone and formaldehyde need to couple together with double bond and remove O to find out the initial compound.

The initial compound is 2-methyl-1-propene.

Option (c) is correct.
