  • The definition of an Injective (one-one) function is: $f(x_1) = f(x_2) \implies x_1 = x_2$.

  • In terms of mapping: No two distinct elements in the domain can map to the same element in the co-domain.

  • This implies each $y$ in the co-domain can have either 0 or 1 pre-image.

  • "At most one" perfectly describes this condition.

option C is correct.
