If there are positive externalities involved with the delivery or consumption of a product, the level of output will be less than the efficient amount of production.

Option C

Explanation:

Externality means the result or the consequences of the activities which affect some third parties also. But this does not get reflected in the market prices. Positive externality means that the third party gains benefits from the activities related to externalities.
