7.
How are market systems affected by location, laws, and behavior of citizens?  (competition of markets, buying patterns of consumers, supply and demand, etc.)




They are affected by convenience of the locations and other stores around that you might want to go to.  




Citizens shop for the lowest prices in order to save money




Markets compete by offering the lowest prices in order to get consumers in their store




Consumers often will shop where it is convenient.




Supply and demand affects the prices daily.  If the demand is higher the prices are more competitive and if the demand is lower the prices are higher.

Agreed.



Less demand makes prices more competitive, more demand drives up the prices.



Just look at lowers as an example.

Wow, didn't see the second amendment one. The one about earth day and recycling. Keeping the planet clean?

That's actually one of the better explanations of the Second Amendment that I've seen in social studies classes.

ETA- Usually, there is no mention of it whatsoever, or they say that it gives the National Guard the right to have weapons.

I believe a heavy dose of grammar is in order.

Not necessarily...

You have what is known as an "Economies Of Scale".

The higher the demand for a certain the product the cheaper it should be so long as the supply can keep up with demand.

A good example could be a hamburger at McDonalds. They probably serve millions daily across the world for an unbelievably low price.

An independent burger restaurant would lose money selling the identical burger for the same price where McDonalds enjoys healthy profits.
