C

Answer to Question 2

Resources are used efficiently in a competitive market because the market demand curve is the same as the marginal social benefit curve and the market supply curve is the same as the marginal social cost curve. The equilibrium quantity, determined by where the demand and supply curves intersect, is the same quantity where the marginal social benefit and marginal social cost curves intersect, which is the efficient quantity.
