    e. A is perfect competition and B is monopoly.

    Explanation:

    In an economy with a perfectly horizontal line which is line A that is where firms are actually price takers in a perfect competition market therefore here even if the quantity demanded in the market is a certain number the price does not change as there are many companies that are actually producing that good therefore they compete perfectly at a certain price.

    The downward sloping line is where a certain firm is producing and providing a certain good to consumers alone where price of a good varies with the quantity demanded and this market is a monopolistic market.
