The answer is the third one (or C): Gastric veins.

Explanation for each option:

  1. Splenic veins: These veins drain blood from the spleen, pancreas, and part of the stomach, but they do not form an arc along the lesser curvature of the stomach.
  2. Inferior mesenteric veins: These veins drain blood from the large intestine and do not have a direct role in forming an arc along the lesser curvature of the stomach.
  3. Gastric veins: These veins, specifically the left and right gastric veins, run along the lesser curvature of the stomach and form an arc. They are responsible for draining blood from the stomach into the portal vein.

Summary: The veins that form an arc along the lesser curvature of the stomach are the gastric veins.
