The correct answer is c. human capital conveys positive externalities.

Explanation:

Externalities are defined as consumption, production and investment decisions made by individuals, households and companies and that affect third parties that do not participate directly in those transactions. Sometimes those indirect effects are tiny. But when they grow up, they can be problematic; That is what economists call "externalities." Externalities are one of the main reasons that lead governments to intervene in the economy.

Positive externalities: In this case, it is about the difference between private and social benefits. For example, research and development activities are widely considered as generating positive effects that transcend the producer (usually the company that finances them). The reason is that research and development enrich general knowledge, which contributes to other discoveries and advances. However, the profitability perceived by a company that sells products based on its own research and development activities does not usually reflect the profitability perceived by its indirect beneficiaries. When externalities are positive, private profitability is lower than social profitability.
