"In an experiment by Simon and Chabris (1999), participants were to watchpeople passing a basketball around, and were told to keep track of someactivity within the game. What was the distinctive feature of the scene andand what proportion of people failed to notice it

The options are

A. during the game, a person in a gorilla suit walked into and out of the scene; almost everyone failed to notice

B. during the game, a person in a gorilla suit walked into and out of the scene, nearly half failed to notice

C. a person in a gorilla suit was one of the ball passers, almost no one failed to notice

D. a person in a gorilla suit was one of the ball passers, nearly half failed to notice

The answer is - A. during the game, gorilla suit walked in and out, almost everyone failed to notice.

levels of production can be increased by technology while holding labor and capital constant, because increased technology makes the production process more efficient. subsequently, the lras curve is almost a vertical line, that can shift to the right, with an increase in technology.

the relationship between the lras curve and the ppc is that both can make the economy could grow. the ppc achieves that when it shifts outward because of more resources or technological advances while the lras curve shifts if more resources are developed or if there are technological advances.

the lras curve is a vertical line at an output level that represents the number of goods and services a nation can produce over a sustained period using all of its productive resources as efficiently as possible with all of the current technology available to it.

the production possibilities frontier (ppf) is a graphical device that is used for economic analysis of production decisions because the ppf measures the maximum possible combinations of two goods that an economy is capable of producing with its currently available resources and technology.
