in this paper, we introduce a method by which we can find a close connection between the set of prime $z$-ideals of $c(x)$ and the same of $c(y)$, for some special subset $y$ of $x$. for instance, if $y=coz(f)$ for some $fin c(x)$, then there exists a one-to-one correspondence between the set of prime $z$-ideals of $c(y)$ and the set of prime $z$-ideals of $c(x)$ not containing $f$. moreover, c...
