The correct option is

A) Hearing

Step-by-step explanation:

In 1798 during the last age of his life Beethoven lost his hearing. His hearing only ever partially recovered and, during its gradual decline, was impeded by a severe form of tinnitus, yet he was considered as deaf in his last stage of his life.

In the last decade of his life, Beethoven lost his hearing. Most famously he still composed musical scores whilst completely deaf. (Answer A).
