Felix has designed a pair of sunglasses that can be folded and put into a case that easily fits into a shirt or pant pocket. Felix wants to know if he can receive a patent on this invention. Which of the following responses would be most accurate according to the U. S. patent law?

He cannot receive a patent since he is merely making the sunglasses more portable.

Explanation: Patent refers to the right granted to the inventor of a product, machine or equipment such that others are excluded from making, using, selling or importing such product which is adapted for use of the patent.

Felix cannot receive a patent on his invention because he only made a portable version of a preexisting invention. Patents are granted to products which are new, useful and non-obvious.

the answer is:

c. economic output

the correct answer is option c. elenita versus "early puerto rican decor" is the best example, out of all the options, of a cultural conflict. a cultural conflict is defined as what happens when different cultures, that have different values and believes, clash. elenita not liking or accepting the puerto rican style of decoration, would represent that she does not identify herself with the puerto rican culture, therefore does not want to have decorations influenced by that culture.
