Uber uses a pricing strategy based on real-time market conditions. It charges less in periods of low demand and more during periods of high demand.

This demand-based pricing strategy is an example of
 A) special-event pricing.
  B) penetration pricing.
  C) dynamic pricing.
  D) prestige pricing.
  E) reference pricing.
