B. Specialized economies use resources more efficiently.
O
C. Specialization limits foreign influence over a nation's economy.
O D. Specialized nations can profit from otherwise worthless goods.

Answers

Answer:

Specialized economies use resources more efficiently.

Explanation:

Factors of production can be defined as the fundamental building blocks used by individuals or business firms for the manufacturing of finished goods and services in order to meet the unending needs and requirements of their customers.

The four factors of production are;

I. Land: this refers to the natural resources and raw materials extracted from the ground or grown in the soil e.g oil, gold, rubber, cocoa, etc.

II. Labor (working): this is the human capital or workers who are saddled with the responsibility of overseeing and managing all the aspects of production.

III. Capital resources: it includes the physical assets used for production of goods and services such as equipment, money, plant, etc.

IV. Entrepreneurship: it is intellectual capacity required to drive a business and the skills to develop an idea into a money making venture (business).

It is important for nations to economically specialize because specialized economies use resources more efficiently in the production of goods and services, so as to have a comparative advantage.

Comparative advantage in economics is the ability of an individual or country to produce a specific good or service at a lower opportunity cost better than another individual or country.

The comparative advantage gives a country a stronger sales margin than their competitors as they are able to sell their specific products or render their peculiar services at a lower opportunity cost.

Que quiere decir esta frase ¨La unidad, la indisolubilidad y la apertura a la fecundidad son esenciales al matrimonio.¨

Answers

La respuesta correcta para esta pregunta abierta es la siguiente.

A pesar de que no se incluyen opciones o incisos para responder, podemos comentar lo siguiente.

Lo que quiere decir la frase "La unidad, la indisolubilidad y la apertura a la fecundidad son esenciales al matrimonio," es lo siguiente.

Esta frase establece algunas características importantes que son la base de un exitoso matrimonio. Primero se refiere a la unidad entre la pareja. Sin unidad, no es posible sobreponerse a los momentos difíciles en la vida matrimonia, y vaya que  hay varios.

Después aparece el término "indisolubilidad," que significa que el matrimonio no se puede disolver ya que es algo serio. Y más si el casamiento fue por la iglesia, como dice los religiosos: "lo que Dios une, el hombre no lo puede separar."

Y finalmente, la "apertura a la fecundad" que significa que uno de los pilares fundamentales del matrimonio es el engendrar hijos y mantener la especia humana.

Evaluate the extent to which mass culture of the 1950s became increasingly
homogenous

Answers

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options for this question we can say the following.

Mass culture of the 1950s became increasingly homogenous for the following reason.

The decade of the 1950s was homogenous because the government and conservative society tried to establish uniform conduct to alienate the young generations. After World War II, the government used mass media outlets to broadcast information, entertainment programs, and social messages that aimed to maintain control of the status quo in American society.

The result was the conformity of the youngsters and society in general. People decided consciously or unconsciously, to follow the rules established by social norms. Traditional roles and norms for men and women in the family, the workplace, and society were reinforced. Nobody really thought on defy the rules established.

The first signs of rebellion arrived until late that decade with the advent of rock and roll and its many exponents.
