Which of the following theories emphasizes the interplay between the proportions in which the factors of production are availabl

Blababa [14]

Answer:

D. Heckscher-Ohlin theory

Explanation:

Heckscher-Ohlin theory emphasizes the interplay between the proportions in which the factors of production are available in different countries and the proportions in which they are needed for producing particular goods. Heckscher-Ohlin theory asserts countries should focus on the production and export of goods in which they have a higher proportion of certain factors to produce. For example, U.S. should produce capital intensive goods because they have abundance of capital while Nigeria should produce petroleum products because they have crude oil in abundance.

Answer:

Situations are interpreted as a crisis.

Explanation:

Informational influence refers to the information or arguments we receive by a group that changes our attitudes, beliefs, or behavior. This usually happens because we believe that the other members have accurate information and therefore we follow their lead.

In this example, the troops were frightened and confused about whether people in the village were enemies or not. Some of them reported they didn't know if the rifle sounds came from enemy guns or from their own troops.

So, basically, none of them were sure about what was going on but still they began setting fire to huts and shooting people (who weren't enemies).

<u>None of them had accurate information about what was going on and technically they didn't have anyone to follow,</u> but still they believed that the rest of the troops knew what they were doing and, since it was a life-death situation, the phenomenon of informational influence occured since the situation they were in was seen as a crisis.

egoroff_w [7]

The correct answer is Type A personality.

Type A personality is characterized by traits such as being highly ambitious, driven, organized, impatient, highly punctual, competitive and sometimes slightly pushy or aggressive. Caitlyn's behavior and characteristics seem to match the characteristics of Type A personality. Melancholic type is incorrect since it means a sad, subdued and lethargic person. Type B is also incorrect since it refers to a more relaxed and laid-back personality type. Type Z is a made up term when referring to personality types.
