Answer : 4. "All of the above"
Explanation :

Answer: D) All of the above Explanation: Laissez-faire is simply a way to describe a government's hands-off approach to economic policies. This approach was particularly prevalent in the United States at the turn of the 20th century, which led to numerous issues within American manufacturing.   There are many outcomes of laissez-faire economic policies. Some of the outcomes of laissez-faire economics were: * Businesses pay workers low. * Pollution of air and water. * Poverty traps that cannot be escaped through free choice.  * General glut that results from overproduction or underconsumption * Monopoly power that emerges naturally in the market and allows businesses to exploit consumers.  * Exploitation of the working class that pushes wages down to subsistence and compels laborers to work in harsh and unsafe conditions.  * External economies that generate situations where desirable goods are underproduced on the market, and undesirable goods are overproduced on the market.  * Public goods that are not supplied by the market due to free-rider problems.

Answer : 3. "The Himalayas provide the barrier effect"
Explanation :

Answer: C) The Himalayas provide the barrier effect Explanation: The whole of India, south of the Himalayas can be climatically treated as a tropical country as the Himalayas provide the barrier effect.    Indian subcontinent is separated from the rest of Asia by the lofty Himalayan ranges which block the cold air masses moving southwards from Central Asia.     As a result, during winters, the northern half of India is warmer by 3°C to 8°C than other areas located on same latitudes.    During summer, due to over the head position of the sun, the climate in the southern parts resemble equatorial dry climate.   The seasonal reversal of winds in Arabian Sea and Bay of Bengal give India a typical tropical monsoon climate.   So Indian climate, to be precise, is Tropical monsoon type (a distinct wet and dry climate) rather than just a tropical or half temperate climate.
