A cartel differs from a monopoly in that by businesses making the same product agree to limit production.

Further Explanation:

Cartel: It is an association formed by manufacturer, supplier, or both to limit production level, to fix prices, or to share customers or markets among themselves.

Monopoly: It is a market structure characterized by one producer selling a unique product. There are barriers to exit and entry. The firm in the monopoly is price maker, not the price taker.

Justification for the correct and incorrect answer:

One corporation has complete control of a product or service: This option is incorrect.

In the case of monopoly, there is a single producer who has control over services or product. In the case of a cartel, there are many producers who form an association to limit the supply or to fix the prices.

Businesses making the same product agree to limit production: This option is correct.

In the case of a monopoly, there is only a single producer who sells unique services or products. In the case of the cartel, there are many producers who are selling the same product agree to form an association to limit the supply or to fix the prices.

One firm sets the prices for all goods in the industry: This option is incorrect.

The one firm setting the price for product or service is a characteristic of the monopoly, but the cartel is characterized by many firms that agree to set the price.

All the firms involved in the same business merge into one entity: This option is incorrect.

The monopoly is characterized by a single producer, so it cannot merge with other business and cartel is an association of producer, supplier, or both.

I believe the answer is: B. businesses making the same product agree to limit production.

In a monopoly, only one single business exist that control the production of a certain goods in the market.
For cartel, there are a lot of established businesses with different ownership, but they agreed to control their production in order to maintain the price level in the market.

Answer:

Ebay

Explanation:

Ebay’s corporate and sales websites have a lot of differences, the most notable being the lack of interface to purchase products on the corporate site. Another difference is that the corporate website is more like a newsfeed, showing achievements, advertisements, etc, for the company, whereas the sales site has lots of pictures and products, and it is more visually pleasing because of the colours. A final difference is there is a lot less text and writing on the sales website than on the corporate website.

Some qualities I associate with Ebay are:

That the products sold on the website are often cheaper than in the shops, because you are purchasing directly from the business.

Another quality that i think of is that it enables small businesses to start their companies without the costs of properties. as well as providing big corporations with somewhere to ensure they get sales.

A final quality that i associate with Ebay is the ability to sell your unwanted things to people, therefore making some profit.

I think Ebay does not have a target market, as when you access their sales website, they have products for every age group, baby toys, phones, mobility scooters, etc.

An example of a desire-based advertisement i have seen is the Galaxy advertisement, where the chocolate is portrayed as a luxury product that is desired by everyone.

An example of fear-based advertising is toothpaste advertisements, where they show what could happen if you don’t use their product, which makes you want to buy it.

You're welcome.
