Answer 1

Answer: a. an offshore facility.

Explanation:

Offshore in this scenario refers to activities in another country therefore an offshore facility would be one that supplies markets located in countries outside the country the facility is located.

These facilities are able to supply other countries with materials because they do it at such a low enough cost that the countries they supply to buy from them instead of their own countries. This is how most Newly Industrialized Countries came to be.
