Atomicity refers to the property of an operation or a set of operations to appear as if it occurred instantaneously. In multithreading, atomicity is ensured when only one thread carries out its operations on an object at a time. This prevents interference from other threads and ensures that the operation is completed without any inconsistency, thus simulating atomicity. Therefore, option C, only one thread carries out its operations on an object at a time, is the best choice.
