Correct answer: (C) Uniformity of nature — Induction rests on the uniformity of nature, so that is the answer.

★It lets us generalise from observed cases to unobserved ones.
★Without it, past observations could not support predictions.
★The other phrasings are not the recognised ground of induction.
★So inductive reasoning is grounded on the uniformity of nature.
