Answer:

D

Explanation:

Asymetric information occurs when one person (in most cases the seller) in the transaction has greater knowledge about the product or service he/she is offering than the buyer or consumer.

For example, a doctor knows more about the medical terms and processes than the patient.

Above is the example of asymetric information.
