Information for questions 20-24 The figure below depicts the production possibilities curve (PPC) of a country. It also depicts the consumption possibilities curve (CPC) when the country is engaged in trade with one other country. Point C is this country’s consumption when that trade occurs. Considering both this country and the other country, this country has absolute advantage in:

Information for questions 10-12 The world is made of three countries, A, B, and C. There are no transportation costs among these countries, just (possibly) tariffs. Countries A and B are considering forming a Regional Trade Agreement (RTA). If they do so, then they will have no tariffs against each other’s goods, but will keep their tariffs against country C’s goods. The following table lists the costs of production per unit of steel in the three countries, and also the tariffs that A imposes on steel from country B and C before the RTA is formed. Costs of production and tariffs  Country Cost of production ($/unit of steel produced) A’s tariff ($/unit of steel imported) Country A 21   Country B 15 5 Country C 11 5 Before forming an RTA with country B, country A imports steel from:

Suppose you group the names by the total credit hours each student is taking this semester (0-9, 10-12, 13-15, 15 or more) and then select all the students who are taking 10-12 credit hours at random.  What sampling method did you use to generate your random sample? Explain your reasoning using the definition of the sampling method.

Please copy and paste the essay question of your choice from the review sheet. Below is the list.  Only answer one of these:Convergent Evolution and Island Biogeography: Discuss how the Caribbean anole lizards serve as a model for convergent evolution. Explain why islands are often referred to as “natural laboratories” for observing these evolutionary processes.The Dinosaur-Bird Transition: Analyze the shift in scientific consensus regarding the origin of birds. How did specific fossil discoveries like Deinonychus and Sinosauropteryx challenge the view that dinosaurs were merely “slow, cold-blooded, and lumbering”?Molecular vs. Morphological Evidence: Using the anole ecomorph study and the cetacean-hippo connection, evaluate the roles of DNA sequencing and physical morphology in constructing phylogenetic trees. Which is considered the “gold standard” and why?Mechanisms of Speciation: Define reproductive isolation and explain how microevolutionary changes within a population (such as changes in leg length or dewlap color) can eventually lead to macroevolutionary events like the formation of new species.
