Question 5 • World and Regional Geography (Semester)

What can result from a country having a comparative advantage in rubber production?

Answer
A
the rise in profit through control of the market for rubber goods
B
the decrease in manufactured goods produced from rubber
C
the sharing of innovations in rubber production with other countries
D
the drop in demand for rubber products from that country

Explanation

A comparative advantage means a country can produce rubber at a lower opportunity cost than other countries. It may specialize in rubber production and trade with others, which can encourage the spread of production techniques and innovations. It does not necessarily control the market or cause demand for its products to fall.
