A)In a labor market that is purely competitive (P.C.), one occupation's wage rate is growing while the equilibrium quantity of labor input (QL, employees*hours) hired is rising, while in a similar occupation the wage is also growing but the equilibrium QL is falling -- what must be happening to the labor demand in these markets?

The imposition of a minimum wage on a competitive labor market will likely create additional employment opportunities because some low-skilled workers will now see their wage increase. O increase unemployment of high-skilled workers as firms substitute high-skilled labor for low-skilled labor. create unemployment as some people enter the labor market while some firms reduce the quantity of labor they are willing to employ due to the increased wage. O lower the wages of workers earning more than the minimum wage.
