Correct answer:  Foreign Policy - He oversaw the construction of the Panama Canal.

As reported by the Office of the Historian of the United States:  "President Theodore Roosevelt oversaw the realization of a long-term United States goal—a trans-isthmian canal" across the Isthmus of Panama.  With Teddy Roosevelt in the White House, in 1902 the US Senate approved the building of a canal through Panama.  Roosevelt's Secretary of State then went to work to arrange a treaty with Columbia (then in control of the Panama region).  When Columbia ended up rejecting the US's offer, President Roosevelt sent US naval warships to support the cause of Panama's independence from Columbia.  After Panama achieved independence (with US support) in 1903, the new country, the Republic of Panama, agreed to treaty terms with the US for the building of the canal.  The Panama Canal was completed in 1914.

About the incorrect answers:  

  • Woodrow Wilson was US president during the World War I years.
  • The United States took possession of the Philippines in 1898  (a couple years before Roosevelt's presidency).  The US did not grant independence to the Philippines till 1946.
  • In an 1886 speech, Teddy Roosevelt had said, "I don’t go so far as to think that the only good Indians are the dead Indians, but I believe nine out of every ten are.  And I shouldn’t like to inquire too closely into the case of the tenth.”   Roosevelt brought that attitude into office with him during his presidency (1901-1909).  As reported by Alysa Landry in an article for <em>Indian Country Today: </em>(June 28, 2016): "Roosevelt’s seven and a half years in office were marked by his support of the Indian allotment system, the removal of Indians from their lands and the destruction of their culture."

A characteristic of perfect competition is when ​
frutty [35]

Answer:

Firms are said to be in perfect competition when the following conditions occur: (1) many firms produce identical products; (2) many buyers are available to buy the product, and many sellers are available to sell the product; (3) sellers and buyers have all relevant information to make rational decisions about the product being bought and sold; and (4) firms can enter and leave the market without any restrictions—in other words, there is free entry and exit into and out of the market.

Explanation:

A perfectly competitive firm is known as a price taker, because the pressure of competing firms forces them to accept the prevailing equilibrium price in the market. If a firm in a perfectly competitive market raises the price of its product by so much as a penny, it will lose all of its sales to competitors. When a wheat grower, as discussed in the Bring it Home feature, wants to know what the going price of wheat is, he or she has to go to the computer or listen to the radio to check. The market price is determined solely by supply and demand in the entire market and not the individual farmer. Also, a perfectly competitive firm must be a very small player in the overall market, so that it can increase or decrease output without noticeably affecting the overall quantity supplied and price in the market.

A perfectly competitive market is a hypothetical extreme; however, producers in a number of industries do face many competitor firms selling highly similar goods, in which case they must often act as price takers. Agricultural markets are often used as an example. The same crops grown by different farmers are largely interchangeable. According to the United States Department of Agriculture monthly reports, in 2015, U.S. corn farmers received an average price of $6.00 per bushel and wheat farmers received an average price of $6.00 per bushel. A corn farmer who attempted to sell at $7.00 per bushel, or a wheat grower who attempted to sell for $8.00 per bushel, would not have found any buyers. A perfectly competitive firm will not sell below the equilibrium price either. Why should they when they can sell all they want at the higher price? Other examples of agricultural markets that operate in close to perfectly competitive markets are small roadside produce markets and small organic farmers.
