    Correct Answer
    A. Procurement has a broader meaning than purchasing

Therefore, the statement highlights that procurement is a more comprehensive term that encompasses various stages and functions beyond just the act of buying.

Therefore, e-marketing is considered a subset of e-business, as it is a specific component or aspect of the overall electronic business operations.
