Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -A change in quantity supplied is the change in the amount offered for sale in response to a change in price. This means that producers will offer more when the price is high and less when the price is low.

Detailed explanation-2: -A change in quantity supplied is a movement along the supply curve in response to a change in price. A change in supply is a shift of the entire supply curve in response to something besides price.

Detailed explanation-3: -A change in price causes a movement along the supply curve; such a movement is called a change in quantity supplied.
