Answer 1

Here are the best answers for the questions provided:

Question 11: The Salad Bowl analogy of U.S. society states that:

• ethnic groups living in the United States retain unique features, but also contribute to American culture as a whole.

Question 12: Which statement is FALSE when comparing the political systems of the United States and Great Britain?

• Both countries contain three branches of government with equal amounts of power. (This is false because while both have three branches, their powers are not equal; the U.S. has a system of checks and balances while the UK follows a parliamentary system.)

Question 13: When comparing the political system of Mexico with the United States:

• Mexican presidents cannot be reelected after serving six years, regardless of job performance. (This is true; the statement that Mexican presidents can be reelected based on outstanding job performance is false.)

Question 14: Match each description with its term:

• Unimpeded exchange and flow of goods and services between trading partners regardless of national borders → Free Trade
• An alliance formed by countries with similar political or economic goals → Economic Bloc
• A government tax on imports → Tariff

Question 15: Which statement best outlines a purpose of free trade agreements between the United States, Mexico, and Canada?

• eliminate many trading and investment barriers while improving the economies of Canada, United States, and Mexico.

Question 16: Which statement below is NOT an economic impact of free trade agreements in North America?

• Mexican businesses have relocated to the United States where labor costs are lower. (This statement is misleading as it indicates a flow of businesses not typically associated with free trade agreements; generally, it is U.S. businesses relocating to Mexico for lower labor costs.)
