A. Opportunity Cost

Explanation:

Choice affecting an economic system, market can be studied by : Macro Economics which studies Economy as 'a whole'.

On contrary, Microeconomics studies individual units of economy & marginal analysis is a tool used frequently in it. And ,Normative Economics reflects subjective non verifiable statements about how economy 'should be'.

So , all of three are not apt to analyse the above statement.

However, Opportunity Cost reflects cost of next best alternative sacrifised while making an economic choice. So ,it is useful to analyse 'choice' affecting an economic system, market. Eg :Opportunity cost is an important tool used in determining comparative advantage of a country in producing a good based on its opportunity cost (other good sacrifised to produce it).
