In the business cycle, what always follows immediately after a peak?

A recession

The business cycle is the name given to the rise and fall in production output in goods. This is usually measured in terms of GDP.

A peak represent the best moment in output of a particualr good or service after a period of expansion. Expansion was traditionally associated with population growth and the rise of consumerism. More recently, expansion is associated with debt from credit cards, mortgages and loans. After this expansion reaches a peak, it is usually followed by a period of recession.

the answer is c sharecroppers were trapped in a cycle of poverty and debt.

explanation:

one of the major disadvantages of sharecropping system is that the sharecroppers or the planters are stucked in an unhealthy cycle of debts. this happens because planters will be allowed to loan merchandise from the land-owner and will soon be paid by the farmer in his share in the farm come harvest time. hope this !
