Answer: low

Step-by-step explanation:

When countries produce the goods that they have comparative advantage in, this implies that they will not produce the goods that they have the opportunity cost to be high.

In this case, they'll produce the products that they have low opportunity cost. The opportunity cost simply means the cost of what they'll forgo.
