To find the answer to this question, look for information about the principal parts of a verb. The principal parts of a verb refer to the different forms that a verb can take to indicate tense and voice.

In option A, it mentions present tense and past tense, which are correct principal parts of a verb. However, it also includes present participle and past participle, which are not principal parts but rather verb forms used in certain contexts.

In option B, it mentions base form and past participle, which are indeed principal parts of a verb. However, it also includes helping verb, which is not a principal part but rather a verb used to support the main verb in a sentence.

Option C, on the other hand, correctly identifies the principal parts of a verb. It includes base form, past tense, and past participle, which are the standard forms used to indicate different tenses and voices in English. However, it also mentions future tense, which is not a principal part but rather a verb form used to indicate actions that will happen in the future.

Option D only includes present tense, past tense, and future tense. While these are different tenses that verbs can have, they do not cover all the principal parts of a verb.

Based on this analysis, the correct answer is C.
