Which statement BEST contrasts core and periphery countries? Periphery countries spend a large portion of GDP on infrastructure development, while core countries spend a large portion of GDP on social services. Periphery countries have import-driven economies, while core countries have export-driven economies. Periphery countries mainly use coal and oil for energy, while core countries mainly use nuclear power and natural gas. Periphery countries have low corporate tax burdens, while core countries have higher corporate tax burdens. Periphery countries rely largely on extraction, while core countries rely on the transfer of goods, services, and information.

Do you have any ideas? So remember this https://questioncove.com/study#/updates/60555f4762ea5ada12a95000 Core countries are consumers, semi-peripheral countries are producers, and peripheral countries are extractors. "Periphery countries are known for exporting raw goods to core countries." "Periphery countries are continuously exploited by countries due to the exportation of surpluses of raw goods to the more technologically industrialized core countries for manufacturing and distribution." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periphery_countries
