Correct answer: C
Explanation
Geostationary orbit is specifically designed for communication satellites to appear fixed over one point on Earth. Semi-synchronous orbits do not match the requirement for a satellite to remain over the same spot constantly. Geosynchronous orbits are related but geostationary is the specific term used for satellites matching Earth's rotation period perfectly. None of these is incorrect because C is the most precise answer.
