    Option: C is the correct answer.

    The cross-section that is obtained on slicing is:

    C. An ellipse.

    Step-by-step explanation: We know that when a cylinder is sliced by a plane parallel to its base then a circle is obtained. If slicing is done perpendicular to the base then the cross-section that is obtained is: rectangle. and if slicing is done by a plane that is not parallel to the base and intersects only the lateral surface is: Ellipse.

    Hence, option: C is the answer.
