The best answer that describes how the Bolsheviks rose to power is:

C. They took over the provisional government after the czar abdicated.

This option reflects the Bolsheviks' successful seizure of power during the October Revolution in 1917, when they overthrew the Provisional Government, which had replaced the czar after his abdication.
