GinnyAnswer
The concept represented in the scenario is: Market disequilibrium. Explanation: 1. Market Disequilibrium: - Market disequilibrium occurs when the supply and demand in a market are not in balance, leading to disruptions in the market. - In this scenario, the unexpected weather conditions (early spring followed by a late snowstorm) caused a decrease in the cherry crop, disrupting the usual supply. - Due to the decreased supply of cherries, the demand remained constant or increased, leading to a shortage of cherries in the market. - As a result, the price of dried cherries increased substantially due to the scarcity caused by the disequilibrium in the market. Therefore, the correct option that identifies the concept in the scenario is "Market Disequilibrium."
