In the key of D, the C doesn't occur naturally at all.
A minor 7th is this:
Note X with X+3 with X+7 with X+10
where X is any note and the numbers are half notes.
Example: Cm7 is:
C Eb G Bb
It's easy to visualize it looking at a piano.
The C# occurs in the D key and if you played a chord using D key notes, it
would be C# diminished... Hopefully this is not awfully confusing.
