Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Technology is at least partially nonrival in nature, meaning that its use by one person does not diminish its availability for others to use. This is characteristic of many digital technologies, for example. The growth path of technology is not necessarily continuous (A) or represented by a line with a constant slope (B); it can be subject to disruptions, advances, and other changes. Technology can sometimes be excludable (D), in that it can be restricted or limited to certain users or groups.
