The correct answer is D.

When a market is in equilibrium and suddenly the product (potatoes) becomes scarcer, this means that the amount supplied has decreased and therefore the producer cannot serve the same level of demand as before. Therefore, <u>the price will increase until the quantity demanded equals the new amount supplied</u>, as less consumers will be willing to purchase the product as prices become higher.
