The Correct Option is C

Step 1: Understanding the Concept:
Check if every letter in the options exists in the keyword "PRESIDENTIAL" and in the correct quantity.
Step 2: Detailed Explanation:
- ARDENT: A, R, D, E, N, T (All present). - SLEEP: S, L, E, E, P (All present). - DENTAL: D, E, N, T, A, L (All present). - PRESIDE: P, R, E, S, I, D, E (All present). - DIGITAL: D, I, G, I, T, A, L.
