C. It shows that the galaxies are moving farther away.

Explanation:

The redshift is phenomena of the electromagnetic radiation and is due to the object undergoes an increase in the wavelength than the decrease in the frequency, and includes the gamma rays and the x rays. And is used to calculate the distance from the nearby objects and is an example of the doppler effect.
