Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The state in which a foreign MNC operates is called the host country, while the state where the MNC has its headquarters is called the home country. Therefore, option B, "host, home" is the correct choice. Option A, "subsidiary, headquarters" is incorrect as a subsidiary is a company that is controlled by another company, which in this case would be the MNC, and not a state. Option C, "home, host" is the reverse of the correct order. Option D, "investor, investing" is not applicable in this context as it refers to different entities than the MNC and the state.
