Answer:

a. egg production falls by a smaller percentage in the factory technique than in the free range technique.

Explanation:

Elasticity of supply is defined as the degree of responsiveness of supply to changes in price. Highly elastic supply responds more to change in price than low elastic supply.

In the given scenario where eggs are produced using factory and free range techniques, as demand falls price consumers are willing to pay also falls.

Since factory technique has a lower elasticity of supply, the fall in supply as a result of fall in price will be small.

However the fall in supply of free range will be higher because of its higher elasticity
