What is the difference between a horizontal merger and a vertical merger?

A vertical merger is one in which a firm or company combines with a supplier or distributor, while a horizontal merger is when two companies competing in the same market merge or join together. Or u can also u this one... Merger-a combination of two companies
horizontal-combo of firms competing in the same market with the same good or service
vertical-the combo of two firms involved in different states of producing the same good or service
conglomerates-business combo merging more than three businesses that make unrelated products
