Read the scenario below and then answer the question. Sample scenario: Scientists have created a new grass seed that stops grass growth at a specific length, eliminating the need to mow the lawn. The price of this seed is high, but many consumers still want to use it. As a result, several different producers supply a large amount of this seed to consumers. In order to attract consumers to their product, some producers lower their prices and supply fewer bags of seeds. What is the best description of the grass seed that is described in this scenario

Answer: a good with an elastic supply

Step-by-step explanation:

Price elasticity of supply simply refers to how the changes in market price of a good bring about a responsiveness to the supply of such good.

Based on the information given, the best description of the grass seed that is described in this scenario is that it's a good that has an elastic supply. This is because the price of the good in thus case, is sensitive to the changes in the price.
