When the demand for a product is inelastic, the product has no close substitutes and can't be easily replaced. Therefore, when the price of the product raises, people buy roughly the same amount of the product because they need it too much.
This is in comparison to an elastic demand, where people will buy less of a product when it becomes more expensive.
