In brief, Trade diversion is a drawback of economic integration as it means that member countries of a particular trading bloc are bound by some rules and regulations (tariffs), and aren't able to trade freely with countries outside the trading bloc even if they are more efficient and cheaper to trade with.

i understood that the elasticity will be different because its a linear demand curve. but even option 'b' can be true . why is dat not the answer ?

B is not the answer because if for example a consumer spends $10 on something,
then the price reduces of the commodity and demand rises and this could mean that a consumer demands more of that product but bcuz the price is falling, the expenditure might not increase.
also we dont noe how much is the rise in demand and the fall in price, its possible for consumer expenditure to fall if demand is increasd at a slower rate than the rate of fall in prices.
i know it sounds confusing but i tried :/

rectangular hyperbola, its there in our syllabus, i have seen mcq s for it
it is the curve for unitary price elastic demand,
any combination of the price and quantity will give the same area under the curve, which is total expenditure from a consumer point of view, and from producer point of view it is total revenue,
thats why, when ped is 1, price changes will bring an equally popotionate change in quantity

when you get this concept,option b in the next mcq, will seem to be wrong for you, as consumer expenditure depends not only on price , but on the price elasticity also,
b is true for price elastic demand only, not for inelastic demand
hope this helps
