Answer:

C

Explanation:

Demand rises when consumers expect a product's price to rise in the future.

This is so because of the fright of inflation of prices. When consumers are able to predict, or see through an impending inflation in prices of goods, then the consumers rush to buy as much of the said goods as possible, which directly leads to an increase in the demand for the said goods.
