Two indifference curves can never intersect each other as ______.

The correct answer is Option (2) → They give different levels of satisfaction.

• Indifference curves represent combinations of two goods that give the same level of satisfaction to a consumer.

• Two indifference curves cannot intersect because each curve represents a different level of satisfaction.

• If they intersected, it would imply that a single bundle of goods gives two different levels of satisfaction — which is logically impossible.
