Selected Answer: B
Expanding operations to multiple locations increases total supply chain risk because it introduces additional complexities and uncertainties in managing the extended supply chain. Each location may have its own set of risks, such as transportation disruptions, regulatory compliance issues, labor disputes, and geopolitical risks, which can impact the overall performance and resilience of the supply chain.

Generally, expanding ops to multiple locations is to mitigate the risk associated with external factors that might affect production.
