Expert Solution
Step 1

"Since you have asked multiple question, we will solve the first question for you. if you want any specific question to be solved then please specify the question number or post only that question."

Price discrimination is the strategic selling in which the seller sells the same product at different prices to customers.

Step 2

Price discrimination can be done only in monopoly because a monopolist is a single seller in the market and it can have a full control over the price of the product that it sells. Thus, giving monopolist a liberty to sell its product at different prices as a consumer cannot go to a different seller for that particular product. While in other markets such as monopolistic, perfect competition sellers, oligopoly, etc. there are more than single seller, no one has a full control over the prices.

Thereby, customers can shift to a different seller if one seller tries to differ its prices for the same product. Thus, we can say that a competition in the market helps to keep varying prices or price discrimination in check.
