The correct answer is: "Textile manufacturers moved jobs to countries with lower labor costs".

<u>One of the business practices that has emerged in the current  globalization scenario is the outsourcing.</u> Firms decide to transfer their manufacturing facilities to developing countries where factors of production are cheaper: labor, raw materials. Those are also countries with more permissive laws, regarding the establishment of new businesses.

With this practice, firms have been able to greatly reduce their costs of production, if compared to producing the same good in a developed country, such as the US and hence, they have become more efficient and competitive in the international markets. In the US, the tendency has consisted on transfering the manufacturing activities abroad, with the corresponding reduction in the number of domestic workers employed in those sectors.  <u>This is one of the main causes of the sharp decline in employment figures in the textile industries observed in the graph. </u>

b.) The diverse geography of the colonies encouraged different economic pursuits.

The British colonies contained diverse geography from rocky coast line, forests, hot and humid areas, swamp lands, and good soiled farm land.

The diversity of geography created differing economies for the Thirteen Colonies. New England focused on shipbuilding, lumber, fishing, whaling, manufacturing, trade, and small farming. The Middle Colonies were best for farming for food production. These colonies established farms for what, rye, corn, vegetable, and animal farming. The Southern Colonies were the harshest of environments being hot and humid with swampy land. However, the geography proved perfect for tobacco, rice, sugar, and eventually cotton. The Southern Colonies focused on plantation farming of cash crops and would demand large amounts of labor. The need for labor would be filled by a system of slavery.

How did magellan voyage show that the earth is round
shusha [124]

Answer:

He planned to sail down the eastern coast of South America to see if he could find a passage to a western ocean that would allow him to reach Asia.

His 38-day voyage in the storms of the channel, now called the Strait of Magellan — at South America's southern tip — led him to what he named the Pacific, for its calm.

"It was the single greatest feat in the history of maritime exploration," Vejas Liulevicius, author of the Great Courses' audiovisual program "History's Greatest Voyages of Exploration," told IBD. "Only one of the vessels returned to Spain three years later and 70% of the crew died, including Magellan, but it's a miracle anyone survived.

ur welcome
