I'll be glad to check your answer. Be sure you know the meanings of embargo and tariff.

an embargo is an official ban on trade or other commercial activity with a particular country.

and a tariff is a tax or duty to be paid on a particular class of imports or exports.

oh wait i see it now

thank you!

You're welcome.

The correct answer is C. An embargo differs from a tariff in that it bans all importation of foreign goods. To understand why this is the correct answer, let's first define both terms.

An embargo is a government-imposed restriction on trade, typically in the form of a ban or prohibition on the import or export of certain goods. It is usually implemented as a tool of economic or political influence, often in response to perceived threats or violations of international law.

On the other hand, a tariff is a tax imposed on goods that are imported into a country. It is designed to make imported goods more expensive, thereby protecting domestic industries and promoting local production.

So, in the context of the question, an embargo goes beyond simply increasing the price of foreign goods (option D) through taxes. It completely bans the importation of foreign goods, thereby prohibiting any trade involving those specific goods.

To choose the correct answer, you need to identify the option that describes the unique characteristic of an embargo compared to a tariff. Option C, which states that an embargo bans all importation of foreign goods, accurately reflects this distinction.
