question 18 of 20
how do the economic effects of globalization on developing countries
compare to those of developed countries?

a. globalization has brought economic prosperity to developed
countries, but has led to consistent economic decline in
developing countries.

b. intergovernmental organizations have brought economic aid to
developing countries, but have given developed countries more
influence and control.

c. technology in developed countries has led to extreme population
growth, but developing countries have not experienced such rapid

growth.

d. organizations like the world trade organization have leveled the
field by supporting developing countries and restricting developed
countries.

Explanation:

• Option A is incorrect because globalization has not caused consistent economic decline in developing countries; many have seen growth from trade and investment.
• Option C is incorrect as developed countries generally have slower population growth, while many developing countries have higher population growth rates.
• Option D is incorrect because organizations like the WTO often favor developed countries' interests more, rather than restricting them to level the field.
• Option B is accurate: intergovernmental organizations do provide aid to developing nations, but developed countries often hold more influence in these bodies, allowing them to shape policies that maintain their economic control and advantage.

Answer:

B. Intergovernmental organizations have brought economic aid to developing countries, but have given developed countries more influence and control.
