Answer : 2. "demand curves do not reflect consumer’s full willingness to pay for goods or services"
Explanation :

Answer: B) demand curves do not reflect consumer’s full willingness to pay for goods or services Explanation: Market failure arises because it is not possible for the market to correctly weight cost and benefits in a situation in which some of the cost is completely unaccounted.
