Explanation:

(c) is the correct answer choice.
The question tests you for the correct use of passive voice and the positioning of adverbs. First, ‘end’ cannot be the doer of the action: ‘would delay,’ but it should correctly be at the receiving end: ‘would be delayed (passive voice).’ Second, both the adverbs ‘otherwise’ and ‘only’ are required for the intended meaning to emerge clearly. Third, these adverbs should be positioned closest to the verb they modify. What better place than to be sandwiched between the auxiliary verb and the main verb: ‘Would be otherwise only delayed.’
