    The correct answer is letter "C": the substitution effect.

    Explanation:

    The substitution effect takes place within a market when the increase in the price of a given good or service implies its decrease in its quantity demanded but the increase in the demand of others as the result of replacement. The product substituted and the replacement good are not complementary.
