Despite having one of the largest economies in the world (based on nominal gdp) what problem faces japan that could affect its economic growth? a)it does not have a good coastline for trade.
b)it has a very small population of skilled labor.
c)it spends most of its tax money on the military.
d)it has a very limited supply of natural resources.

Despite having one of the largest economies in the world, Japans economic growth could still be affected by the fact that D) it has a very limited supply of natural resources. This fact is largely due to Japans over all land size versus the amount of population it supports. 125 million people live on the land and the amount of land Japan has that is suitable for farming in not large enough to support this amount of people. The land also has very limited resource over all in way of raw materials such as, oil, coal, iron ore, copper, aluminum and wood. Because of these facts Japan imports most of its foods and raw materials from other countries. Its due to their import that Japan has one of the largest economies in the world.
