Model Answer

Ramu is a passive businessman. He waits at his shop for customers to come to him and only sells plants. He does not make extra effort to expand his business.

Ramya is an entrepreneur. She actively seeks customers, diversifies her products (seeds, flowers, plants), and introduces innovative ideas to grow her business.

Explanation

This question tests understanding of entrepreneurship vs. passive business. Ramu represents a traditional shopkeeper with no initiative for growth. Ramya shows entrepreneurial traits: proactiveness, diversification, and innovation. Examiners expect these contrasting roles to be clearly identified and explained. The source passages are not directly relevant here — answer is based on the scenario given.
