D

Answer to Question 2

Macroeconomics is concerned with the behavior of the economy as a whole, while microeconomics is concerned with the choices of individual decision-makers, such as households and firms. Macroeconomics deals with aggregates, such as the total output of the economy or unemployment, while microeconomics deals with how many hours a person chooses to work or how many people a firm decides to hire.
