The Demand Curve for a Good Is Given by P

question 47

Multiple Choice

The demand curve for a good is given by p = 160 - 6q, where p is the price and q is the quantity of the good.Suppose that the number of consumers in the economy doubles; a "clone" of each consumer, who has exactly the same demand curve as the original consumer, appears.The demand curve for the doubled economy is described by

• A)p = 320 - 6q.
• B)p = 320 - 12q.
• C)p = 160 - 12q.
• D)p = 160 - 3q.
• E)p = 80- 3q.

Definitions:

Action Potential

A rapid change in the electrical charge across a cell membrane that results in a nerve or muscle cell firing.

Positive Feedback Cycle

A process where the end products of an action cause more of that action to occur in a feedback loop, amplifying the original action.

Sodium-Potassium Exchange Pump

A membrane-bound enzyme complex that pumps sodium out of cells while pumping potassium into cells, crucial for maintaining cellular concentration and electrical gradients.

Afterpotential

The transient changes in membrane potential that follow an action potential, including hyperpolarization or depolarization phases, affecting neuron's firing rate.
