b. False

Explanation:

Firms are not in competition with many other firms in every market structure. Some market structures such as monopolies or oligopolies feature either one single firm, or only a few firms, that frequently collude instead of competing.

Not all firms leave the market as soon as they lose profits. Some do, but others stay. A monopoly can survive decades without increasing its profits.

Not all firms will try to maximize profits, some will try to maximize market share instead, especially in perfectly-competitive market structures.

Not all firms face a horizontal demand curve. In some market structures, demand can be very dynamic, either sloping upwards (increasing) or downwards (decreasing).

The business cycle is the periodic but irregular up-and-down movement in economic activity, measured by fluctuations in real gross domestic product (gdp) and other macroeconomic variables. a business cycle is typically characterized by four phases—recession, recovery, growth, and decline—that repeat themselves over time. economists note, however, that complete business cycles vary in length. the duration of business cycles can be anywhere from about two to twelve years, with most cycles averaging six years in length. some business analysts use the business cycle model and terminology to study and explain fluctuations in business inventory and other individual elements of corporate operations. but the term "business cycle" is still primarily associated with larger (industry-wide, regional, national, or even international) business trends.

while setting up his new office, an attorney ordered thick, frieze carpets for the floor. however, the building inspector had him remove the expensive carpeting. the building inspector stated that according to federal regulations, the office must be wheelchair accessible as it is a public area. he further explained that since wheelchairs do not maneuver well in thick, frieze carpeting, the carpets had to be removed and be replaced with smooth-textured carpets that do not restrict wheelchair maneuverability. this scenario illustrates how a company is influenced by the component of its specific environment.
