The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

Concept:
An asymptote parallel to \(x\)-axis has the form: \[ y=c \]

Step 1: Given curve.
\[ y^3+x^2y+2xy^2-y+1=0 \]

Step 2: For horizontal asymptote.

For an asymptote parallel to \(x\)-axis, take \(x\to\infty\) and \(y\) finite. The highest power term in \(x\) is: \[ x^2y \] For the expression to remain finite near an asymptote, the coefficient of \(x^2\) must vanish. \[ y=0 \] Therefore, the horizontal asymptote is: \[ y=0 \] \[ \therefore \text{Correct Answer is (C)} \]
