Solution

The correct option is C Gluteus maximus
The gluteus maximus is the largest muscle in the human body. These muscles help move the hips and thighs and also keep the trunk of the body in upright position. These muscles work against the gravity when we are walking up stairs. So, the correct answer is 'Gluteus maximus'.
