Answer:

b. horizontal integration

Step-by-step explanation:

Horizontal integration is the method by which a business increases the production of goods and services in the very same section of the distribution chain.

This can be achieved by a business by internal growth, takeover or merger.

The cycle could lead to dominance if the large majority of the market for that product or service is captured by a corporation.
