Model Answer

(B) Information technology — allowed production of services to be split and carried out in different countries.

Explanation

The textbook (Summing Up, Ch. 4) explicitly states: "Technology, particularly IT, has played a big role in organising production across countries." Options A, C, and D swap the roles: liberalisation removed trade barriers (not transport costs); WTO establishes trade rules (not SEZs); containerisation reduced transport costs (not trade negotiations).
