Luvs!♥
Answer:
I think it might be the first one, hope this helps
Explanation:
Answer:
Socialism:
social and economic doctrine that calls for public rather than private ownership or control of property and natural resources. According to the socialist view, individuals do not live or work in isolation but live in cooperation with one another.
In words it's the elite who get the high life, and every middle class t lower class citizen gets s-h-i-t in Soclialism, people who have the power don't want to do hard work because... it's to "hard". It's just gimme gimme gimme.While the hard work average family/person gets demoted to lower class and gets to live in poverty
Example: Venezula, Cuba, Vietnam
Communism:
A system of government in which the state plans and controls the economy and a single, often authoritarian party holds power, claiming to make progress toward a higher social order in which all goods are equally shared by the people.
It's another word for a dictatorship, the idea of everything being eveeryone property doesn't work because nobody will take care of it if they don't really own it. The government having control doesn't work ither because the people end up with no freedom or right
Example: China, North Korea, Loas
So in the end they both suck and Capitalism is the best form of governmnet as it allows people to have free enterprise, it spark innovation, and gives everyone equal opportunity, free enterprise, private property, and is run by the people. And before anyone stars bashing Capitalism for being "unfair" because their are losers and doesn't give everyne the same outcome. I want you/them to think, if someone who flips burgers all day and didn't even pass high-school gets paid the same as someone who went to the best college for 8- year to become a Neurosurgeon, is fair.
So yeah, both systems are bad and fail everytime.

what were some of the justifications for slavery? give 4 justifications and explain each one of them
PLEASE help
Answer:
1. Economical purposes: Before the Industrial Revolution, there was a severe shortage in manpower for many farmers and many alone would not have been able to quickly and efficiently harvest their crops and materials which slavery helped to accomplish as they usually had much more stronger bodys than the farmers and were in large quantities
2. Heirarchy of Race: During the Enlightenment, many thinkers argued that there was a racial hierarchy involved in slavery and that slaves (mostly from Africa) were vastly inferior to the predominant white race that owned most slaves, which justified that those with dark skin, were obligated to be slaves.
3. Religious factors: Many slave owners particularly those in the Southern US had also argued that in the bible, Abraham also was a slave owner which gave them a religious justification that slavery was a needed and acceptable institution.
4. Widespread social anarchy: In addition, Southern slave owners also argued that if slaves were freed this would cause mass unemployment and a societal chaos which used the justification that the slaves would cause social chaos and disorder.

Identify two properties of Water explain how each property allows water to play a large role in changing the earths surface
Answer:
Is this for history or bio
Answer:
Water’s high specific heat and high heat of Vaporization
Water’s high boiling point and high thermal conductivity
Explanation:
Water’s high specific heat and high heat of Vaporization makes it possible for the water bodies not to get easily dried up thereby affecting and killing sea animals.
Water’s high boiling point and high thermal conductivity makes it possible for moderation in the amount of precipitation that occurs on the earth surface. If it had Low boiling point then there would be lots of evaporation and very high precipitation
There are several properties of water that play a vital role in stabilizing the earth such as abnormal density and temperatures.
What is understood by density of water?Materially, density is the weight of an object of a certain volume. Water density is about 1 gram per milliliter however, this varies with temperature or when there are solvents in it.
Unusual density: Water has an area of abnormal density as it has a high liquid content and low density in a solid-state. This structure allows ice to float on water.
Temperature: Water has a certain high temperature and loses heat less than air. Thanks to this structure, the sea and lake water in summer are very cold in the early spring and warm after a few days. so this surface area changes the soil temperature.
Therefore, water properties play a vital role in transforming the earth.

c.
Increased Eastern markets for buffalo robes and tongues.
d.
All of the above.
Please select the best answer from the choices provided
A
B
C
D
Answer:
D
Explanation:
The species' dramatic decline was the result of habitat loss due to the expansion of ranching and farming in western North America, industrial-scale hunting practiced by non-indigenous hunters, increased indigenous hunting pressure due to non-indigenous demand for bison hides and meat, and cases of deliberate policy by settler governments to destroy the food source of the native Indian peoples during times of conflict. The buffalo hunters paid the railroad to ship the hides of the buffalos they killed. The sale of the buffalo hides helped to pay for the cost of building the railroads. The Buffalo hunters, feed the workers, helped pay for the construction of the railroads, and destroyed the power of the plains Indians.
