Answer:
A by causing real median household incomes to decline
C by limiting consumer choice
Explanation:
Negative effects of trade barriers (protectionism) policies include the following:
- weakening competition in the domestic market, and, consequently, incentives to improve production decsrease;
- the welfare of the population is decreasing due the rise in price of imported goods and the relative high cost of domestic goods, the deterioration of the quality of domestic goods, and the restriction of the freedom of choice of consumers;
- the country will suffer large losses due to the non-use of the absolute and relative advantages of the international division of labor and exchange.
This is confirmed, in particular, by the fact that after the Second World War, the gradual removal of trade barriers, such as tariffs and quotas, stimulated growth and increased the level of welfare wherever this happened, partly due to the expansion of the choice of goods for the population at lower prices. More importantly, trade also had a powerful beneficial effect on productivity, that is, on the efficient use of world resources for the production of economic goods.

Explanation:
It all depends on the definition of the term Modern Era. The word modern comes from Latin word modo, which means right now or just now. It was used for the first time during the Renaissance in Italy to bring attention to the great rediscoveries of sciences, the arts, history and politics of Classical antiquity and the subsequent discoveries and progresses accomplished like the Age of Discovery.
If such definition is used as the basis for this question then the answer is definitely C.The establishment of global empires.
Indeed, since during the previous periods, Empires were limited to their immediate geographic areas. There had been some attempts to explore areas that were located much farther like the Vikings and their travels to Greenland and North America.
However, it was the Europeans: and to some lesser extent the Chinese, that actually discovered (in the literal sense of removing the cover) the Americas for the entirety of the world. The discovery paved the way for the emergence of Global Empires that were completely unprecedented in the history of humanity since they spanned several continents. For instance, the Global Spanish Empire Under Philip II of Spain in the 16th Century that spanned the continents of Europe, the Americas, Africa and Asia.
