Question

the country is using all its resources efficiently.
a new technology is invented to produce more food grains in the country.
the country plans to produce goods that are not possible to produce with the available resources.
many of the countrys young people died in an earthquake.
shifts ppc to the right
point on the original ppc
shifts ppc to the left
unattainable point

Explanation:

1. Match "shifts PPC to the right"

A new technology for more food grains increases production capacity, shifting the Production Possibility Curve (PPC) right.

Step1: Analyze "shifts PPC to the right"

A rightward shift of PPC occurs when factors like technology improve, increasing production capabilities. The statement "A new technology is invented to produce more food grains in the country" leads to this as new tech boosts production potential.

2. Match "point on the original PPC"

Using all resources efficiently means production is on the original PPC (as PPC represents maximum efficient production).

Step1: Analyze "point on the original PPC"

A point on the original PPC is when resources are used efficiently (no underutilization). The statement "The country is using all its resources efficiently" corresponds as it's operating at maximum efficiency on the original PPC.

3. Match "shifts PPC to the left"

Loss of young people (labor resource) due to earthquake reduces production capacity, shifting PPC left.

Step1: Analyze "shifts PPC to the left"

A leftward shift of PPC happens when resources decrease (e.g., labor loss). The statement "Many of the country's young people died in an earthquake" causes this as labor (a resource) is reduced, lowering production potential.

4. Match "unattainable point"

Answer:

• shifts PPC to the right: A new technology is invented to produce more food grains in the country.
• point on the original PPC: The country is using all its resources efficiently.
• shifts PPC to the left: Many of the country's young people died in an earthquake.
• unattainable point: The country plans to produce goods that are not possible to produce with the available resources.
