Where is industry now shifting from in the world?
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

The industry nowadays is shifting from the more developed countries to less developed countries.

Explanation:

A is not correct because the less developed countries didn't really have any industry to start with, let alone for it to shift to another place from them.

B is not correct because the industry has been moving with the process of globalization, thus it has been shifting for some time now to the global markets.

C is correct because the industry from the more developed countries has seen a great opportunity and potential for making more profit in the less developed countries, and the reason for that is cheaper labor force, cheaper materials, and lower taxes.

D is not correct because these two regions are pretty much on the same level when it comes to industry, so there wouldn't really make any sense that it shifts from one to another.
