Correct Answer: There is a possibility of free ridership in its consumption.


Solution : The correct option is There is a possibility of free ridership in its consumption .

The presence of free ridership in consumption is a characteristic of public goods. Free riders are individuals, or entities that benefit from a public good without paying for it. Since public goods are non-excludable, it is challenging to prevent people from enjoying the benefits even if they don't contribute to the cost of providing the goods.
