Final answer:

A permanent resident lawfully present in the U.S. is eligible for coverage through the Health Insurance Marketplace. U.S citizens who are incarcerated or living abroad, and individuals with Medicare coverage, are not eligible for Marketplace plans.

Step-by-step explanation:

In determining eligibility for the Health Insurance Marketplace, certain criteria must be met.

  • A U.S citizen who is incarcerated is not eligible for coverage in the Marketplace.
  • A U.S citizen living abroad typically does not qualify for coverage through the Marketplace.
  • A permanent resident lawfully present in the U.S. is eligible for coverage through the Marketplace.
  • Someone who has Medicare coverage is not eligible for Marketplace plans since Medicare is a separate federal health insurance program primarily for people over 65 years old.

Therefore, among the options provided, Option C: A permanent resident lawfully present in the U.S would be eligible for coverage on the Health Insurance Marketplace.
