Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

Market failure is a situation in which the market economy leads to too few or too many resources going to a specific economic activity as a result of externalities. External costs lead to too much supply in a market than otherwise. In this case, the government can correct the market outcome by imposing a tax and regulation. On the contrary, external benefits lead to too little market demand than otherwise. In this case, the government can correct the market outcome with subsidies and regulation.
