Answer:

Option (c) is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Marginal utility refers to the additional utility that a consumer can get from consuming additional units.

Law of diminishing marginal utility states that as a consumer consumes more and more quantity of goods, then the additional utility drive from each extra unit of the goods goes on diminishing.

The consumption is assumed to be continuous.
