Which is an example of a country that is overly dependent on another country for critical goods and services?

Answer
A
a country that licenses some television shows
B
a country that imports all its oil
C
a country that has some international businesses
D
a country that imports all of its luxury goods

Explanation

A country is overly dependent when it relies on another country for goods or services it critically needs. Oil is an essential energy resource, so importing all of its oil creates a strong dependence on foreign suppliers. Importing all luxury goods is less concerning because luxury goods are not usually critical necessities.
