Explanation:

To determine the period with dramatic changes in cell phone technology (reflected by a sharp increase in sales), we analyze the graph:

• From 2000 - 2002: Sales increase slowly.
• From 2002 - 2004: Sales increase moderately.
• From 2003 - 2005: Sales show a sharp, exponential - like increase (dramatic change).
• From 2001 - 2003: Similar to 2002 - 2004, moderate increase.

So the period with the most dramatic change (related to technology driving sales) is 2003 - 2005.

Answer:

c. 2003 - 2005
