B) Resource scarcity
C) Punctuated equilibrium
D) Buyer dependence

Answer 1

Answer:

A : Discontinuous Change

Explanation:

Discontinuous Change is the best illustration for this scenario.

Discontinuous Change is an unexpected change that gives a warning to the current or traditional authority or line of command of an industry. The warning lies in the event that an unplanned change can drastically transform the overall running of the business and can execute the pre-existing methods, code of conduct, systems, and operational models unusable just like here a gourmet chocolate manufacturer who imports the best quality cocoa from the country Jescavia but due to sudden increase in demand of cocoa in their own country it discontinues the previous chain of transaction between gourmet chocolate and the country Jescavia.
