Answer:

C. humorous

Explanation:

Based on the list of suffixes, "humorous" is the correct spelling of the word that means "funny" because since -ess = "female", if we add that to "humor" we get "humoress", meaning "funny female". Since -less = "without", if we add that to "humor", we get "humorless", meaning "without humor" or "not funny". Since -ous = "full of", we add that to "humor" and get "full of humor" or "fun", and thus, you have your answer.
