When Host P transmits a SYN to Host Q, it is requesting to establish a connection. If Host Q is willing to open the connection, it will respond with a SYN/ACK segment. This segment indicates that Host Q is ready to establish a connection and is waiting for acknowledgement from Host P. Finally, Host P will transmit an ACK segment to confirm the establishment of the connection. Therefore, the best choice is C, as it implies a positive response to Host P's request.
