one key difference between an oligopoly market and a competitive market is that oligopolistic firms:
A: are price takers while competitive firms are not
B: can affect the profit of other firms in the market by the choices they make while firms in competitive markets do not affect each other by the choices they make
C: sell completely unrelated products while competitive firms do not
D: sell their product at a price equal to a marginal cost while competitive firms do not
