Question 1: The dependency theory looks at how trade between core countries and periphery countries disproportionately benefits core countries. This is because core countries get the benefit of the cheaper goods and services, which are brought to their country for sale. Core countries also exploit the natural resources and labor of the periphery countries which makes it more difficult for those countries to develop. Core countries can always find other developing countries to produce their products, however, the periphery countries economies become dependent on trade with the core country causing trade to favor the core country.
Question 2: A
Question 3: D
Question 4: Core countries take advantage of the cheap labor and raw materials found in semi-periphery countries and periphery countries. They produce their products in these developing countries in order to increase the amount of products they can offer for their citizens and reduce the cost of those products. Periphery countries and semi-periphery countries end up being exploited by core countries in the global market, which makes it more difficult for them to continue to develop their own economies.
Question 5: This is when 60% of a country's exports are commodities. Countries that rely on the exportation of their commodities put their economy at risk to the day to day price changes of those commodities.
