    D) cause the quantity demanded to exceed the quantity supplied of rental housing.

    Explanation:

    A price ceiling is a binding government regulation in which it puts a cap on the price landlords can charge tenants to rent their properties. If this happens, there could be a rapid significant increase in the demand of apartments. This would lead to excess demand that the existing supply cannot meet, creating a shortage. The property owners may also choose to not rent their apartment at that lower price driving the supply even lower.
