Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
Medical clinics are more likely to locate near their customers as they are service providers for the local community and need to be easily accessible for patients. The other options listed are examples of industries that can have a more dispersed customer base and therefore may not be as impacted by location in relation to their customers.
