The correct choice is

C. The loudness of the sound increases

Amplitude of a sound wave tells us how energetic the wave is. higher the amplitude, larger will be the energy contained in the wave. Smaller the amplitude, smaller will be the energy contained in the wave.

The loudness of sound depends on amplitude. greater the amplitude, louder the sound will be.
