Final answer:

A home country is where the investing corporation was legally created or incorporated, which is true. Proprietors of proprietary colonies had governance responsibilities, not just profit collection. Multinational corporations are not necessarily headquartered in the U.S., and international financial capital can include diverse private investments, not just government debt.

Step-by-step explanation:

A home country refers to the nation where an investing corporation was legally established or incorporated. To address the multiple parts of your question:

  1. The statement that a home country is where the investing corporation was created or is incorporated is true.
  2. In a proprietary colony, the statement that Proprietors only have the responsibility to collect profits is false. Proprietors also had responsibilities to govern and manage the colony.
  3. A multinational corporation (MNC) is characterized by their broad range of investors and disregard for national borders when conducting business; however, it is not correct that they must be headquartered primarily in the United States. So, the characteristic that is not true for MNCs is d. They are headquartered primarily in the United States.
  4. The acquisition of land was indeed a significant motivating factor in early U.S. Indian policy, making that statement true.
  5. Colonies in the Americas, after their initial founding, typically relied on their home countries for supplies and economic support rather than becoming totally independent.

The government has distinct powers over its citizens and residents, including imprisonment for lawbreaking, taxation, and military service, while other entities like families, churches, and businesses do not.

Lastly, international flows of financial capital involve private investors in various forms of investment across countries, and are not solely related to the government debt.
