C) require more than a majority of directors approve any board action.

Explanation:

Al Medical, Inc, is a privately held corporation, since its shares are owned by a few shareholders that personally know each other and work together. In order to avoid a shareholder form dominating the firm they can use a supramajority voting requirement. This means that a quorum (for board of director meetings and voting procedures) is more than the majority of the shares, but rather the majority of the board members. This will prevent a shareholder who is able to purchase more than 50% of the shares to decide what should be done since he will always need the physical presence of other directors.
