Expert Solution
Step 1

Cross-price elasticity: - Cross-price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of change in quantity demanded of one good due to the change in the price of other goods.

Therefore, cross-price elasticity is the effect that a change in the price of one good has on the quantity demanded of another good.

Hence option (A.) "the effect that a change in the price of one good has on the quantity demanded of another good." represents cross-price elasticity.
