Sellers are able to enter and exit the market freely.

A flea market is very much an example of ready access to enter and exit a marketplace.  There is no monopoly of one company or group on the trade there; individuals are able to set up their booths and market their products at will.  Marielle's knitted items will have her own unique touch, so the "identical products" aspect of pure competition doesn't so much apply here.  And while you'll find many sellers at a flea market, they're all selling their own various, different items.  

Overall, the basic characteristics of what is called "pure competition" are these:

... There are many competitors selling similar or identical products.

... When products are similar or identical and are all selling at similar or identical prices, no one competitor in the market has a distinct advantage over others.

... New competitors can easily enter the market, and competitors can exit the market.  (That's the key feature in your flea market example.)

... Product prices are essentially whatever buyers are willing to pay.

How did the U.S. Navy and Air Force work together during the Cuban missile crisis?
jekas [21]

Answer:

In the fall of 1962, the United States and the Soviet Union came as close as they ever would to global nuclear war. Hoping to correct what he saw as a strategic imbalance with the United States, Soviet Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev began secretly deploying medium- and intermediate-range ballistic missiles to Fidel Castro's Cuba. Once operational, these nuclear-armed weapons could have been used on cities and military targets in most of the continental United States. Before this happened, however, U.S. intelligence discovered Khrushchev's brash maneuver. In what became known as the Cuban Missile Crisis, President John F. Kennedy and an alerted and aroused American government, military, and public compelled the Soviets to remove not only their missiles, but also all of their offensive weapons, from Cuba

Thepotemich [5.8K]
Based on the information provided, it seems like the answer would be the freedom of the press.

The freedom of the press is a 1st amendment right that allows investigative journalists to spread information to the public about candidates and their policies. The ability to share this information without the threat of persecution is a critical element of having a fair election. The citizens should have all the information about a candidates policies/programs in order to make an educated decision as to who would be the best person for the job.
