Uncle Burton is a <u>laggard</u> in the diffusion of innovation process for telephones.

Answer: Option D

<u>Explanation:</u>

Laggard is the group of people who lack the up to date information in any context. As in the question above, uncle Burton is not updated about the availability of the new technology phones.

He is still renting the rotary-dial telephone although there are many other new tech phones in the market. So he is a laggard in the process of using the innovative new technologies.
