Jennifer and Peter each produce apple icees and banana bread. Peter can produce 40 apple icees and 25 banana bread. Jennifer can produce 60 apple icees and 30 banana bread. Which of the following statements is true? Immersive Reader A. Jennifer has both an absolute advantage and a comparative advantage in making apple icees.
B. Peter has a comparative advantage in making both apple icees and banana bread
C. Peter has a comparative advantage in making icees and Jennifer has a comparative advantage in making banana bread.
D. Peter has a comparative advantage in making icees, and Jennifer has a absolute advantage in making banana bread

the answer is A. the answer is a because Jennifer has more products than him and if she sells all she yes more than him

the earth’s crust is broken into separate pieces called tectonic plates (fig. 7.14). recall that the crust is the solid, rocky, outer shell of the planet. it is composed of two distinctly different types of material: the less-dense continental crust and the more-dense oceanic crust. both types of crust rest atop solid, upper mantle material. the upper mantle, in turn, floats on a denser layer of lower mantle that is much like thick molten tar.

each tectonic plate is free-floating and can move independently. earthquakes and volcanoes are the direct result of the movement of tectonic plates at fault lines. the term fault is used to describe the boundary between tectonic plates. most of the earthquakes and volcanoes around the pacific ocean basin—a pattern known as the “ring of fire”—are due to the movement of tectonic plates in this region. other observable results of short-term plate movement include the gradual widening of the great rift lakes in eastern africa and the rising of the himalayan mountain range. the motion of plates can be described in four general patterns:

collision: when two continental plates are shoved together

subduction: when one plate plunges beneath another (fig. 7.15)

spreading: when two plates are pushed apart (fig. 7.15)

transform faulting: when two plates slide past each other (fig. 7.15)
