Answer: In a market with positive externalities, "C. the efficient level of production is more than what competition will obtain.".

Explanation: An externality is a situation in which the costs or benefits of production or consumption of some good or service are not reflected in its market price. A positive externality is the positive effect of an activity imposed by an unrelated third party.
