Correct Answer
A. ConsiderationExplanation
Consideration is the correct answer because it refers to the value or benefit that each party in a contract gives or promises to give to the other. It is an essential element of a valid contract, as it signifies that each party is receiving something of value in exchange for their promises. Without consideration, a contract may be deemed unenforceable. Therefore, consideration plays a crucial role in ensuring the fairness and enforceability of contractual agreements.Rate this question:

A. Implied contractsExplanation
An implied contract is a type of contract that is not explicitly stated in writing or orally, but rather inferred from the actions and behavior of the parties involved. In other words, it is a contract that is understood and agreed upon through the conduct of the parties, rather than being explicitly expressed in words. This can be seen in situations where both parties act in a way that indicates they have mutually agreed to certain terms and conditions, even though they have not formally discussed or written them down.Rate this question:
