Expert Solution
Step 1: Define international trade

International trade refers to the exchange of goods and services between countries or nations. It involves the buying and selling of products across international borders and is a fundamental aspect of the global economy. International trade allows countries to access goods and services that they may not be able to produce efficiently or cost-effectively on their own.
