Explanation

Option C is correct because the HTML5 Canvas API provides a <canvas> element and a JavaScript drawing API that lets developers programmatically render 2D shapes, images, animations, and games directly in the browser. Option A is wrong - interactive forms are built with standard HTML <form>, <input>, and related elements. Option B is wrong - cookies are managed via document.cookie or the Web Storage API, not Canvas. Option D is wrong - external links use the <a> tag with an href attribute. Memory tip: Think of <canvas> literally as a painter's canvas - it's a blank surface where your JavaScript "brush" draws pixels, nothing more, nothing less.
