    The answers are:

    D) Supply and the entire curve shifts. D) Quantity supplied and the supply curve does not shift.

    Explanation:

    1. When non price factors (that affect the supply of a product) change, then the whole supply curve shifts and the quantity supplied will vary.

    For example, new machinery that produces goods in a more efficient way, will shift the entire supply curve to the right. Suppliers will be able to produce more goods at the same costs.

    2. A change in the amount of goods produced due to a change in price, is a change in the quantity supplied of that product. Suppliers will produce more goods at higher prices. But those changes in the quantity supplied happen follow the supply curve.
