What happened at the Berlin Conference?

The Berlin conference was a meeting/Conference that regulated trade in Africa. It also started the Scramble for Africa, which is when Britain, France, Germany, Belgium, Portugal, and the Ottoman Empire, seized and colonized lands in Africa. The conference also relaxed tensions by a little bit, but not a lot.

b or c ( this is because my answer is short so just ignore it)

the correct answer is “opportunity cost”. opportunity cost is what a company misses out because it decided in one option over another one. in this case, the company decided to invest in building a factory so it gave up another possible benefit or profit in order to achieve success with the factory.  

trade-off is not the correct answer since it is a situation in which you accept losing something in return for benefits in other areas.

and finally, consequence is a general term used to accept what it comes when you make a decision. it can be a positive or negative consequence depending if the decision you took was the correct one.
