    The correct answer is letter "A": Opportunities exist for a blue-ocean strategy to invent a new industry or distinctive market segment that creates altogether new demand.

    Explanation:

    Late-mover advantages are those that companies try to use based on the experience of previous companies dedicated to similar businesses to find out if it was successful or not considering factors such as consumer's tastes or product prices. Late-movers oppose first-movers since the second strategy relies on an attempt of introducing a new product to the market to avoid competition but the risks and challenges for market entry are higher.
