Answer:

B. inductive reasoning

Explanation:

In inductive reasoning the evidences for the study and the conclusion are already available at the time, when the study is done, in the premises itself. No outer reference needs to be taken, or in case if it is taken then it can be utilized for the study, but basic reference and evidence is always available in the premises itself.

In the given instance also, the traits are available and the study is completed through pea plants which were available closely.

Although the technology was not available and the study is completed based on the evidence of pea plants.

2. Skip and Peggy are brother and sister and they fight about everything. Skip says that perfectly competitive firms maximize pr
finlep [7]

Answer: They are both right.

Explanation:

Firms in every market will always maximise profit where their Marginal Revenue equals Marginal Cost because at this point, resources are being fully utilized. This is therefore no different in a Perfectly competitive market so Skip is correct.

Peggy is also correct however because in a Perfectly Competitive market, the demand curve is perfectly elastic. This creates a situation where the Price, Marginal Revenue and Average Revenue are all the same and represent the demand curve as well.

With the Price being the same as the Marginal Revenue in a Perfectly competitive firm, that means that where the Price equals Marginal Cost is where the Marginal Revenue equals Marginal Cost as well so indeed perfectly competitive firms maximize profit where price equals marginal cost.
