Answers

Answer 1

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached, we can comment on the following.

In 1957, Russia successfully launched a satellite named Sputnik into orbit. The impact of this achievement on the United States was the following.

American people reacted to Sputnik 1 with fear and concern. United States citizens were concerned that they were inferior to the Soviets in terms of science, technology, and missiles.

Four years later, the Soviet Union decided to send astronaut Yuri Gagarin. He was the first human into space. His capsule was named "Vostok," which completed its orbit on April 12, 1961.

The response to the launching of Sputnik by the Soviet Union in 1957 and the sending of Gagarin was that the US federal government began spending billions of dollars to improve American science education.

The space program had to be sped up because, in those years of the Cold War, it was inadmissible for the United States to behind the Soviet Union in the space race. The United States federal government also invested a lot in education and space research.

Black people, African Americans were hired by NASA to help develop the science and mathematics calculations to develop better rockets that could equal the Soviet feat.

Among the factors that led to World War II was Group of answer choices the aggressive foreign policy of the United States following World War I. the inability of the Soviet Union to oppose Germany. the inability of Britain and France to agree on the terms of the Versailles treaty. the failure of efforts of collective security such as the League of Nations and treaties.

Answers

Although there were many causes of World War II, much of the blame is traced to the failure of the Treaty of Versailles at the end of World War I. During the 1920's and 1930's, totalitarian states had established control under: Nazi leader Adolf Hitler in Germany; fascist leader Benito Mussolini in Italy; communist leader Joseph Stalin in the Soviet Union, and Emperor Hirohito in Japan. The inability of the League of Nations to deal with the aggressive acts of these nations, combined with the isolationism of the U.S., and the appeasement of Adolf Hitler eventually led to World War II. In the years following the rise of dictators in Europe, an ethnic cleansing of undesirables was carried out in Hitler's Final Solution.

GDP takes into account consumer spending, business investment, government spending, and net exports (exports minus imports).

By measuring GDP, economists and policymakers gain insights into the size and growth rate of the economy, allowing for comparisons between countries, tracking economic trends, and informing policy decisions related to fiscal and monetary matters.

La importancia del Seguro Social es que es una institución pública que fue creada por el gobierno para ofrecer un servicio público a los trabajadores de las empresas privadas que cotizan para esta institución por medio de un descuento proporcional a su salario mensual.

Esto es, que cada vez que un trabajador recibe su salario, el patrón le descuenta una cantidad que sirve para cotizar en el Seguro Social. Esa cotización es un porcentaje del salario del trabajador, y otro porcentaje lo pone la empresa.

El trabajador que cotiza tiene derecho a los servicios de salud pública en  su clínica u hospital que le corresponda. Ya sea una enfermedad menor o una operación complicada, el trabajador tiene derecho a recibir atención médica gratuita.

Por otra parte, las causas de la explosión demográfica, son principalmente las siguientes.

Primero, una falta de planificación familiar que repercute en un mayor número de nacimientos. Después, una población más longeva, que vive más años debido a una mejor alimentación y mejores servicios médicos.
