demand: Desiree for a product, willingness and ability to buy
An expansion in demand occurs when demand increases due to a fall in price
A contraction in demand occurs when the price rises causing demand to fall
Both an expansion and contraction are movements along the demand curve, which is due to price changes

hope this kindda helps

yea go and read your textbooks, this is as easy as questions will come. how can you not know what demand is? its all so basic...

i reckon this site should ban threads which asks for advise on a specific essay question, it is just plain cheating.
