Answer: increases, increase

Density of a substance is calculated by mass/volume formula. In this case, if the mass of the substance changed then the density must be changed too so option A and B are out.
If the volume is same but mass increased, then the density will increase, or vice versa. Then the possible answer increases, increase or decrease, decrease
