Answer:
The correct answer is option B.
Explanation:
An oligopoly is a market structure in which there are few firms which are interdependent on each other such that price and output decisions of a firm affect other firms in the market. There is a high degree of competition in the market.
Firms in an oligopoly market can maximize profits by forming formal or informal collusion and reducing output level and increasing price.
Though such cartels are generally short-lived as each firm has the incentive to earn higher by not cooperating. The cartel will not be successful if there are other firms in the market which are not a member of the cartel.
A cartel will have a longer life if all the firms in the market are its market and the cartel has strict control on its members and ability to punish cheaters.

In this case, the study is an observational study because he only observed the subjects that were in the zoo that morning and measured the variable of his interest, that is the environmental attitude of the visitors, he did not apply a certain treatment to the group nor manipulate any variable.
Federalism in a workplace is characterized by equal and responsible distribution of power between a general and a specific base of power.
Explanation:
In an office space, the manager or the executive officer can represent the general authority which is the representation of the union government in the federation. The specific officers working within that manager's scope serve the position of the regional powers or the states.
In this system, it would mean that there is a division of power and that the manager is treated on equal footing in terms of stature with the workers even though their job is to oversee the work.
There would be certain areas where the workers can work unquestioned and some areas where they have to consult the manager.
