If quantity demanded is completely unresponsive to changes in price, demand is:
A
1.Inelastic
B
2.Unit elastic
C
3.Elastic
D
4.Perfectly inelastic
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -When the demand of a quantity does not change as a result of a change in the price of a commodity, the demand of that commodity is called a perfectly inelastic demand. In this case, the elasticity of demand is zero.

Detailed explanation-2: -When a good has an elasticity of zero it is called “perfectly” inelastic. This means that the supply and/or demand of the product will not change at all even as its price changes.

Detailed explanation-3: -Perfectly Inelastic Demand: When demand is perfectly inelastic, quantity demanded for a good does not change in response to a change in price. Finally, demand is said to be perfectly elastic when the PED coefficient is equal to infinity. When demand is perfectly elastic, buyers will only buy at one price and no other.

Detailed explanation-4: -Perfect inelasticity refers to a situation in which the quantity demanded does not change at all, regardless of the price. Perfect elasticity refers to a situation in which the quantity demanded is extremely sensitive to changes in price, with even a small change in price leading to a large change in quantity demanded.

Detailed explanation-5: –the case where the quantity demanded is completely unresponsive to price, and the price elasticity of demand equals zero.
