What is a characteristic of a purely competitive sellers demand curve?

What is a characteristic of a purely competitive seller's demand curve? Price and marginal revenue are equal at all levels of output.

Which of the following is characteristic of purely competitive sellers?

In a perfect competition market, firms sell identical products. They have no differences in quality, color, packaging, weight or contents. For buyers, one seller's product can replace another seller's. In a pure competition market, products can be similar but are not completely identical.

What are the characteristics of a purely competitive industry?

a marketing situation in which there are a large number of sellers of a product which cannot be differentiated and, thus, no one firm has a significant influence on price. Other prevailing conditions are ease of entry of new firms into the market and perfect market information.
