Romanian term or phrase: cererea în raport cu elasticitatea

elasticity of demand
Explanation:
I agree with Carmen, except that I would simply say 'elasticity of demand' because that is how the term is used in English, it is unnecessary to say 'with respect to' or 'in proportion to'.

As a general rule, appliances, cars, confectionary and other non-essentials show elasticity of demand whereas most necessities (food, medicine, basic clothing) show inelasticity of demand (do not sell significantly more or less with changes in price
