Answer: Option B

Explanation: Capitalism refers to that economic structure in which the major resources and industries within the economy are controlled by individuals and private corporations. In such a capital structure the intervention is very minor in controlling price or market forces of demand and supply.

Therefore, in a capitalist economy the producers can get into unethical business activities in the greed of extra profit as there is no authority to monitor or regulate their behavior.
