The self-inductance of a solenoid is increased when a soft iron core is inserted into it. This is because the soft iron core_______________?

A. Decreases the resistance of the solenoid
B. Reduces the effect of eddy current
C. Improves the flux linkage between the turns of the coil
D. Increases the mutual inductance between the solenoid and the core
