Answer:

C, first mover

Step-by-step explanation:

A first mover is the first entrant to a particular market. That is, the first to start the manufacture of a certain product.

A first mover strategy is a strategy that allows a firm have control of a market as well as gain competitive advantage. It also helps to give an almost monopolistic control of the market as it can dictate the prices of the product in the market.

Cheers.
