Step 1: Define agriculture industry Agriculture being the primary sector, it not only includes arable farming but also animal husbandry, horticulture, and forestry. The article provided in the question talks about animal husbandry, which is a kind of agricultural practice where animals are raised on farms for their meat, fibre, and dairy products. Animals are selectively bred and raised for economic profit. Step 2: Answer (1) The author highlights the prosecutor's comparison of injured piglets to dented cans in a grocery store, as he wanted to underscore the dehumanization and commodification of animals. The main aim of the author was to invoke empathy among the readers. Just like a dented can in a grocery store, which is nothing but a commodity that is discarded due to its dent, pigs and other animals on farms are raised until they have the potential to provide a certain amount of economic profit, but if they get injured, they lose their economic value to the farmer and thus would be…

1.) Scarcity and Choice Understanding what the market system does well and what it does badly is essential for developing solutions to the fundamental economic problem: how to best manage the resources of society despite their scarcity. As a result, all economic decisions involve trade- offs. A well-functioning market system facilitates such decisions by assigning an input to where it will best serve society. The supply and demand model show how a competitive market behaves. This model is the most basic tool used by economists to measure and illustrate how the interactions in a market system determine price and quantity . First, briefly explain the reason(s) why the true cost of any decision is its opportunity cost; Next, list the three decisions every household or firm must make in deciding how to allocate its scarce resources and briefly explain the exchange in which of the possible combinations of outputs to producer is carried out as well as the system in which it is decided how…
