The base case is the condition where the recursion stops and returns a value without further recursive calls. In the given recursive procedure, the base case is when N = 0, as this is the condition where the procedure stops and returns a value without further recursive calls. Choice A (N > 0) cannot be the base case since the procedure needs to continue until N reaches 0. Choice C (N < 0) also doesn't make sense as the procedure involves adding 2 to N until it becomes 0 or positive.
