which best describes what takes place when a chinese supplier of bicycle parts exports bike seats to detroit bikes?

When a Chinese supplier exports bike seats to Detroit Bikes, this is best described as international trade.

Quick Scoop

• A Chinese company sells and ships bike seats across borders to a U.S. company (Detroit Bikes), so goods move from one country to another.

• That cross‑border buying and selling of physical products is called international trade , not foreign direct investment or a trade agreement.

• It’s also one specific example within the broader globalization of production and supply chains, where parts are sourced globally and assembled in another country.

If this comes from a multiple‑choice question, the correct option is the one labeled “international trade.”
