Ans:
Monopoly
Explanation :
If the monopoly firm has zero costs or only has fixed cost, the quantity supplied in equilibrium is given by the point where marginal revenue is zero. In contrast, perfect competition would supply an equilibrium quantity given by the point where average revenue is zero. The essence of monopoly power is the ability to alter the price of a product.

[14] The short run marginal cost curve is shaped.
A.
U
B.
V
C.
X
D.
W
Ans:
U
Explanation :
A short-run marginal cost curve graphically represents the relation between marginal (i.e., incremental) cost incurred by a firm in the short-run production of a good or service and the quantity of output produced. It is usually U-shaped. This U shape is directly attributable to increasing, then decreasing marginal returns (and the law of diminishing marginal returns). As marginal product (and marginal returns) increases for relatively small output quantities, marginal cost declines. Then as marginal product (and marginal returns) decreases with the law of diminishing marginal returns for relatively large output quantities, marginal cost increases.

Animals that have a cavity between body wall and digestive tract are known as coelomates for e.g. annelids, molluscs, arthropods, Echinodermata, and chordates etc. In contrast, animals in which the body cavity is absent are known as acoelornates. Platy-helminthes is an example of acoelomates. The presence orabsence of body cavity or co-elom plays a very important role in the classification of animals.

[14] The short run marginal cost curve is shaped.
A.
U
B.
V
C.
X
D.
W
Ans:
U
Explanation :
A short-run marginal cost curve graphically represents the relation between marginal (i.e., incremental) cost incurred by a firm in the short-run production of a good or service and the quantity of output produced. It is usually U-shaped. This U shape is directly attributable to increasing, then decreasing marginal returns (and the law of diminishing marginal returns). As marginal product (and marginal returns) increases for relatively small output quantities, marginal cost declines. Then as marginal product (and marginal returns) decreases with the law of diminishing marginal returns for relatively large output quantities, marginal cost increases.

Ans:
mass
Explanation :
Newton's second law of motion can be formally stated as follows. The acceleration of an object as produced by a net force is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force, in the same direction as the net force, and inversely proportional to the mass of the object.

[13] If the firm has zero costs or only has fixed cost, the quantity supplied in equilibrium is given by the point where the marginal revenue is zero.
A.
Perfect Competition
B.
Monopoly
C.
Oligopoly
D.
Monopolistic Competition
Ans:
Monopoly
Explanation :
If the monopoly firm has zero costs or only has fixed cost, the quantity supplied in equilibrium is given by the point where marginal revenue is zero. In contrast, perfect competition would supply an equilibrium quantity given by the point where average revenue is zero. The essence of monopoly power is the ability to alter the price of a product. There is only one seller or firm in the market facing many buyers.
[14] The short run marginal cost curve is shaped.
A.
U
B.
V
C.
X
D.
W
Ans:
U
Explanation :
A short-run marginal cost curve graphically represents the relation between marginal (i.e., incremental) cost incurred by a firm in the short-run production of a good or service and the quantity of output produced. It is usually U-shaped. This U shape is directly attributable to increasing, then decreasing marginal returns (and the law of diminishing marginal returns). As marginal product (and marginal returns) increases for relatively small output quantities, marginal cost declines. Then as marginal product (and marginal returns) decreases with the law of diminishing marginal returns for relatively large output quantities, marginal cost increases.
