B) semi-circular.

C) a downward-sloping straight line.

D) a downward-sloping straight line that is broken at one point.

E) a downward-sloping curve concave to the origin.

66) On a diagram of a production possibilities boundary, the concept of scarcity is illustrated by the

A) points on the boundary.

B) area within the boundary.

C) distance from the origin to the boundary.

D) negative slope of the boundary.

E) unattainable points outside the boundary.

67) On a diagram of a production possibilities boundary, the concept of opportunity cost is illustrated by the

A) distance from the origin to the boundary.

B) negative slope of the boundary.

C) boundary being concave to the origin.

D) unattainable points outside the boundary.

E) area bounded by the two axes and the boundary.

68) A straight-line production possibilities boundary differs from a concave boundary in which of the following ways?

A) The straight-line boundary illustrates constant opportunity costs, whereas the concave boundary illustrates increasing opportunity costs.

B) The concave boundary illustrates constant opportunity costs, whereas the straight-line boundary illustrates decreasing opportunity costs.

C) The straight-line boundary does not show scarcity, whereas the concave boundary does.

D) The straight-line boundary shows opportunity cost, whereas the concave boundary does not.

E) A straight-line boundary is associated with a command economy, whereas a concave boundary is associated with a free-market economy.

69) Consider Canada’s production possibilities boundary. Suppose a scientific breakthrough leads to a lower-cost method of producing battery-operated cars in Canada. The likely effect would be to move Canada’s current production
