Which of the Following Statements Is Most CORRECT

Which of the following statements is most CORRECT?

B) When Texaco purchased Getty Oil, many financial analysts felt that the deal made sense because it increased Texaco's market share and expanded its shrinking oil reserves. This merger exemplified the belief among the natural resource companies that buying reserves through acquisitions was less costly than exploring and finding them in the field.
C) When Mobil Oil Company tried to acquire Conoco, which was another oil company, stockholders were concerned that the U.S. Justice Department would try to block the merger because it would lessen competition. Thus, antitrust considerations affected this proposed horizontal merger.
D) Answers b and c are correct.
E) All of the statements above are false.
