    The correct answer is option E.

    Explanation:

    In a perfectly competitive market, the equilibrium is determined by the market forces of demand and supply. Though externalities, both positive and negative, can arise in the market. Externalities make the market inefficient.

    The government can intervene in the market in case of both positive as well as negative externalities in order to achieve economic efficiency.
