The basic difference between pure competition and monopolies lies in the number of sellers and market control. In pure competition, numerous firms sell identical products, leading to price-taking behavior where no single firm can influence the market price. In contrast, a monopoly exists when a single firm dominates the market, enabling it to set prices and control supply without competition. This results in higher prices and reduced consumer choice compared to a competitive market.
