Answer:

200

Explanation:

The labor force in an economy is composed of all adults able-bodied individuals who are employed or actively seeking employment. Employed people are those engaged in economic or income-generating activities.  Unemployed are jobless individuals who are actively seeking work.

In Freelandia, labor force participation will be composed of the employed and the unemployed people.  As per the definition of the labor force, children will not be included as they are not adults. Students and retired people are not seeking employment; hence should not be in the labor force. Therefore, the labor force will be 190 plus  10, which is 200.

Hunter-Best [27]

Answer: c. increase consumer surplus in the market for tomato sauce and increase producer surplus in the market for spaghetti noodles.

Explanation:

A complementary good is the one which can be used only with another good. For example a CD can only run in a CD player or any other suitable device so the sales of CD is dependent upon the availability of device used to pay it. Other examples are tennis ball and tennis racket, mobile phone and sim cards, and others.

According to the given situation the decrease in price of tomato will be an advantage to the consumers as they will be able to purchase them with an affordable price and can produce tomato sauce this will promote the production of spaghetti noodles as tomato sauce is consumed along with spaghetti noodles this way the tomato sauce and spaghetti noodles are complementary goods for each other. The sales and production of one good will affect the sales and production of another.

emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

The tend and befriend response

Explanation:

The word "tend" refers to care and look after someone while "befriend" refers to becoming friends with someone.

The tend and befriend response refers to a form of behavior in response to a threat. When under immense stress, an individual adopts a fight or flight response which is getting extremely aggressive in order to fight the situation or flees i.e tries and runs away from the situation.

The tend and befriend response has been observed to be more prominent in case of females. So when subjected to immense stress, it was observed that females spent a lot more time "tending" to their off springs which appeared vulnerable to them, serving as a mode to reduce stress while at the same time, also forming friendly bonds to seek support from others.
