Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Pyromania is defined as a mental disorder characterized by a compulsion to set fires, and an unnatural fascination with fire. The root "pyr/o" does mean fire, but the actual definition of pyromania is related to behavior and mental illness, not just a love or fascination for fire. Therefore, choice C is the best answer.
