Correct Option: D

The product possibility curve (PPC) illustrates the following:

Scarcity of resources: The PPC demonstrates that there are limited resources available to produce goods and services.

Unemployment of labor: Points inside the curve indicate unemployment of resources, including labor.

Inefficiency in the use of resources: Points inside the curve also represent inefficient use of resources.

Economic development: The PPC is a static model; it does not directly emphasize economic development. Economic development is usually shown as an outward shift of the PPC.
