C

Answer to Question 2

Static gains from trade-trade leads to a new set of relative prices which, in turn, imply new consumption levels and a redistribution of resources in favor of comparative advantage industries. The combination of effects leads, in a static environment, to an improved standard of living. Dynamic gains from trade-trade can lead to an outward expansion of a country's production possibility frontier.
