Ans: The demand curve for a perfectly competitive firm is horizontal , but the demand curve for a perfectly competitive industry is downward sloping.
Explanation:
Under perfect competition , firm is the price taker whereas industry is the price maker. A firm can produce or sell the output as much as it wants in the given market price. As a result the demand curve for a perfectly competitive firm is horizontal, but the demand curve for a perfectly competitive industry is downward sloping.
