as we move down on the demand curve, marginal utility of a commodity starts declining bcoz of the law of diminishing marginal utility.after getting full satisfaction from a commodity both demand and marginal utility of that commodity decreases.
Marginal utility is the key concept underline demand .The height of a demand curve reflects marginal utility.The marginal utility curve resembles the demand curve. So, it is through the marginal utility we get the demand curve.
how is a demand curve derived from individual demand curve ?
The principle of diminishing marginal utility explains the slope of the demand curve by letting us be able to see which direction the slope is in, which is always downward.
both are equal and complement to each other
The demand curve is negatively sloped to represent the declining marginal utility from consumption. At greater quantities of consumption each additional unit of a good consumed will yield relatively less utility, thereby reducing the marginal willingness to pay for that good.

The demand curve is negatively sloped because it is based on the principle of marginal utility and this utility decreases as consumption increases. The demand price which depends on the marginal utility of a good also declines as consumption increases, so quantity and price are inversely related, leading to the negative curve and the law of demand.

An increase in purchasing power as market price decreases.Diminishing marginal utility.
marginal revenue always lies behind the demand curve,and when demand increases marginal revenue also increases.demand curve is used to determine price of a commodity.
utility is not constant along the demand curve
The link between a product and how much it is worth, the amount it is in demand and how much customers are ready to pay for it can be shown in economics on a graph known as a demand curve. This is also known as the marginal benefit curve.
Demand.
No it does not. Only Perfectly Competitive firms have a horizontal Marginal Cost curve, which is also there demand curve.
