Cevap

The correct answer is A. A unit elastic demand means that the percentage change in quantity demanded is equal to the percentage change in price. Therefore, if there is a 5 percent rise in the price of plums, it would result in a 5 percent decrease in the quantity of plums demanded, indicating unit elasticity.
