    Communism is

    • An economic system in which investment and ownership is controlled by private corporations or individuals

    • A system of government that all economic activities are controlled by a single political party

    • Commercialism

    • A government by the people

    Correct Answer
    A. A system of government that all economic activities are controlled by a single political party
    Explanation
    The correct answer is a system of government that all economic activities are controlled by a single political party. Communism is a political ideology that advocates for the establishment of a classless society where all means of production are owned and controlled by the state. In a communist system, there is no private ownership of property or businesses, and the government centrally plans and controls all economic activities. This is in contrast to capitalism, where investment and ownership are controlled by private corporations or individuals.
