An advocate of free trade would argue that a) trade barriers lead to a loss of jobs for domestic workers. b) quotas are needed to protect certain industries from competition. c) tariffs reduce the demand for domestically produced goods. d) consumers benefit from the availability of more low-cost goods.

The answer is D, my guy. Mark me as brainlest, leave a rate, and thanks! All positive vibes. :)

The correct answer is D.

Free trade advocates pursue the removal of trade barriers such as tariffs or quotas. They state that free trade and market integration processes enhance the degree of competitivity in the markets. Firms can choose to either increase their efficiency, decrease their production costs and compete in prices or, on the other hand, to differentiate their products to attract a larger share of consumers than their competitors, in order to obtain higher profits.

In turn, consumers will be benefited because they will be able to purchase better-quality goods at a lower market price.
