Question

which is an example of a country that is overly dependent on another country for critical goods and services?
○ a country that imports all its oil
○ a country that imports all of its luxury goods
○ a country that licenses some television shows
○ a country that has some international businesses

Explanation:

To determine a country overly dependent on another for critical goods/services, we analyze each option:

• "A country that imports all its oil": Oil is a critical resource for energy, transportation, etc. Importing all oil means heavy reliance on exporters, as oil is essential (not luxury or optional).
• "A country that imports all of its luxury goods": Luxury goods are non - essential, so dependence here is not critical.
• "A country that licenses some television shows": Licensing TV shows is a limited, non - critical cultural/economic activity.
• "A country that has some international businesses": Having international businesses shows engagement, not over - dependence on another for critical goods.

Answer:

A. a country that imports all its oil
