Explanation:
In a perfectly competitive market firms have similar products and so they must compete with each other to get market share.
Gaining a competitive advantage is key in surviving within the market.
Differentiation of its products is the first step to success. When a firm's product is differentiated from others it will gain more customer loyalty as the end user identies the product with a particular trait for example high quality.
When the companie's activities are well synchronised the company achieves efficiency which is a competitive advantage of higher output than other firms.

Answer:
This question is incomplete, the options are missing. The options are the following:
a) They have the opportunity to reject the proposed change.
b) They will have the opportunity to know more than others about the change.
c) They will be able to convince customers the change was the right thing to do.
d) They will feel a sense of ownership of planned change and are more likely to be on board.
And the correct answer is the option D: They will feel a sense of ownership of planned change and are more likely to be on board.
Explanation:
To begin with, it will be more acceptable for an employee of a company or a member of a group to agree with a change if that person was involved in the planning of the change. That means that he will feel that he is part of the solution and therefore part of the team because his ideas were listened and maybe he contributed with something. That is why that members who participate in the planning of a change will always be more positive about the final outcome due to the fact that they were there during the process of deciding that outcome and that will make them feel integrity related to the work and to the team as well.
Answer: The correct answer is (A) : Positive upward slope.
Explanation: A demand curve is basically a graph like any other with the variables in potted on both the x-axis (left to right) and the y-axis (top to bottom). Understanding the definition of demand would make it easier to understand why the answer is option A and why the demand curve has a negative downward slope.
Demand can be defined as the quantity of a commodity or service that a consumer is willing and able to buy at a given price and at a particular point in time. And the law of demand states that “other factors being held constant, the higher the price of a commodity, the lower the quantity being demanded by the consumer. And the lower the price of a commodity, the higher the quantity being demanded by a consumer.”
This is simply a rational consumer behavior. So if the price of movie tickets were to go up let’s say from $10 to $15 then a consumer who previously could afford to watch 8 movies in a month (that’s $80) would be having second thoughts and so, rather than spend $120 per month on movie tickets, would be more inclined to watch less movies and stay within his/her $80 budget.
Therefore, on the demand curve, as the price of movie tickets moves positively towards the right side (on the x-axis), the quantity demanded would move negatively downwards (on the y-axis). As one variable increases the other one decreases, and vice versa. That explains why the demand curve has a negative downward slope.
