Yeah, the answer is C. In the example sentence, deep is meant as intense or profound. "Garrett felt "intense" sympathy..." Profound could also be substituted.
The word deep in A means depth, bottomless. Hm...I guess both B and D could also mean depth. B could also be "Mr. Jones took a 'big' breath."

C- becuase the word deep in the question is showing emotion not action.

a. is telling distance
b. is telling time
c. is the right one, showing how much
d. is also distance
