A Correct answer
Explanation

Undue influence occurs when one party occupies a position of power over another and uses that position to obtain an unfair advantage. This superior position allows them to dominate the will of the weaker party, making the resulting consent invalid. It is a key concept in ensuring that contracts are entered into freely and fairly.
