C. M2 includes savings deposits.

Explanation: M1 and M2 are measures of the money supply in an economy. M1 includes the most liquid forms of money, such as currency in circulation and checking account deposits. M2 includes all of the components of M1, plus other less liquid forms of money, such as savings deposits, money market funds, and certificates of deposit (CDs). Therefore, the main difference between M1 and M2 is that M2 includes savings deposits and other less liquid assets that are not included in M1.

Note: The other options are incorrect because:

A. M1 and M2 have nothing to do with mortgages.

B. M2 is not more liquid than M1; in fact, it includes less liquid assets.

D. M2 is actually larger than M1, not the other way around.

The correct answer is **C. M2 includes savings deposits**.

**Explanation:**
- **M1** consists of the most liquid forms of money: physical currency, demand deposits (checking accounts), and other checkable deposits.
- **M2** includes all components of **M1** plus less liquid assets like savings deposits, money market accounts, and small-time deposits (e.g., certificates of deposit under $100,000).
- **Option C** correctly identifies that M2 includes savings deposits, which are not part of M1.
- **Option B** is incorrect because M2 adds *less liquid* assets, not "more liquid."
- **Option D** is false since M2 is always larger than M1.
- **Option A** is unrelated to money supply categories.

Answer: **C**

Explanation:
In macroeconomics, M1 and M2 refer to different measures of the money supply.

A. M1 and M2 do not relate to mortgages, so this option is incorrect.

B. M2 is not simply M1 plus more liquid assets. In fact, M2 includes some less liquid assets compared to M1. This option is incorrect.

C. M2 does include savings deposits, whereas M1 does not. M1 mainly consists of physical currency, demand deposits (checkable deposits), and other liquid assets. M2, on the other hand, includes M1 plus savings deposits, small-time deposits, and money market mutual funds. This option is correct.

D. M1 is not necessarily larger than M2. In fact, M2 is typically larger than M1 because it includes additional components such as savings deposits. This option is incorrect.

M2 includes everything in M1 plus additional assets that are less liquid, such as savings deposits, money market mutual funds, and other time deposits. Therefore, the correct answer is C. M2 includes savings deposits.
