Expert Solution
Step 1
First of all, we need to understand the difference between the change in quantity demanded and the change in demand.
Change in quantity demanded/ quantity supplied: when the own price of good changes, there is a movement along the demand curve.
Change in demand/ supply: When the demand or supply curve shifts either leftwards or rightward due to reasons (like, change in taste or preference, change in income, change in price of related goods) other than change in own price of a good.
