can i get google sheets to take the data from one sheet and divide it into columns on another?

I have a google form populating responses on one sheet, and I need it to automatically add the items to a list on another sheet based on the contents of column c on the response sheet. there are four text options, divided into column a, c,e,g on the new form. so if x in column c, then parse column d into column a on the new sheet. Does that make any sense? It seems such a simple thing to do, just not describe!
