Answer: [C]

Solution.

Irrational numbers are real numbers which cannot be represented as simple fractions.
Examples: \sqrt{2},\sqrt{3},\pi
 \sqrt{\frac{4}{9}}=\frac{2}{3} (rational)
 \frac{\sqrt{12}}{\sqrt{3}}=\frac{2\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3}}=2 (rational)
 \sqrt{81}=9 (rational)
but \sqrt{7} is an irrational number.
Therefore option (C) is correct.
