Answer:

(B) ​rises; decreases

Step-by-step explanation:

  • As the labors are unable to motivate the other laborers of the firm in the organization then the wage rate will increase the form needs more and more laborers to work in the factory or the production units and hence the employment opportunities will decline as an upward movement along the demand curve.
