Final Answer :
C
Explanation :
Intrusive interruptions refer to interrupting someone in the middle of their speech without waiting for their turn to speak. Studies have found that men are more likely to use intrusive interruptions compared to women, implying an attempt to dominate the conversation. The other options do not directly relate to this behavior.
