Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
The amplitude of electromagnetic waves determines the brightness of light. Hue refers to the specific color of light and wavelength determines the color of light. JND (Just Noticeable Difference) is a threshold for detecting differences between stimuli and is not directly related to the amplitude of electromagnetic waves.
