Brad often watches advertisements for acne removal creams. when he listens to claims that the product makes the users' skin clearer in a few hours, he wonders, "no one's skin can become clear within hours. the product will not work." brad's thoughts are examples of select one: a. one-sided messages b. credibility c. counterarguments d. reasoning by analogy e. support arguments

Brad's thoughts are examples of c. counterarguments

Explanation:

What is a counterargument?

When someone else make an argument but you disagree or oppose that argument that they have made this is referred to as counterargument.

We disagree in most things someone thinks something is better and when we do not think that way we express our counterargument to that.

The advertisement of the acne cream says it will work in few hours and Brad disagrees with this argument and his counterargument is that this will not work because Bard doesn't believe it can work in such a short span of time.

trade regulation is a field of law, often bracketed with antitrust (as in the phrase “antitrust and trade regulation law”), including government regulation of unfair methods of competition and unfair or deceptive business acts or practices. antitrust law is often considered a subset of trade regulation law. franchise and distribution law, consumer protection law, and advertising law are sometimes considered parts of trade regulation law.

in general the theory of economics says that the more open to trade a country is the better   the result for the same country and the whole economies.

in real life countries impose taxes, quotas, etc which is not so good for the economies.

this kind of commercial war between the usa and china is slowing down the growth of the whole world so we can say that it is a draw back of trade regulations. and the free trade agreements are benefits of trade regulations.
