Answer:

The correct answer is option c.

Explanation:

An oligopoly market is a form of imperfect competition where there are a few firms. These firms can produce identical or differentiated products. Because of a few firms in the market, there is a high degree of competition in the market.  

These firms are interdependent such that the economic decisions of a firm affect its rivals. So each firm has to consider the reaction of its rivals before making decisions.

The firms are price makers and face a downward-sloping demand curve.
