What explains how the Hawaiian Islands formed as a chain?
a. Volcanic hotspots appear spontaneously along the Pacific plate exuding lava that created a chain of islands.
b. The Hawaiian hotspot moved under the Pacific plate exuding lava that created a chain of islands.
c. The Pacific plate moves over a stationary hotspot exuding lava that created a chain of islands.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

C.

Explanation:

The Hawaiian Islands were formed by such a hot spot occurring in the middle of the Pacific Plate. While the hot spot itself is fixed, the plate is moving. So, as the plate moved over the hot spot, the string of islands that make up the Hawaiian Island chain were formed.

You have chosen to complete the Case B Decision Template. Note—You only must complete and submit either Case A or Case B for grading. Two middle school students often wear clothing with slogans like “Vegan All Day, Every Day, “The Moo Moo is a No No,” and “Be Cool, Be Vegan.” The students believe that consuming any animal products, like meat and milk, is bad for health and bad for the environment. They began a campaign to convince all the students in the school to bring lunch from home instead of eating school lunch. Each day greater numbers of students brought their lunch to school and wore pro-vegan clothing. The school suspended the students who began the campaign against the school lunches. School officials said it was a disruption to the school, because food was wasted, and cafeteria workers had less to do. The students’ parents complained, saying their students have the right to express their ideas and opinions through their clothing and actions. They brought the case to court on the students’ behalf. The students’ parents lost the case in state district court and so appealed it to their state court of appeals. There they won the case, but the school board appealed the decision to their state-level supreme court. The state supreme court found in favor of the school board. The students and their parents are now appealing the state supreme court’s decision to the U.S. Supreme Court.

Answer:

The Founding Fathers enshrined the Electoral College in the US Constitution because they thought it was the best method to choose the president.

Using electors instead of the popular vote was intended to safeguard against uninformed or uneducated voters by putting the final decision in the hands of electors most likely to possess the information necessary to make the best decision; to prevent states with larger populations from having undue influence; and to compromise between electing the president by popular vote and letting Congress choose the president.

According to Alexander Hamilton, the Electoral College is if “not perfect, it is at least excellent,” because it ensured “that the office of President will never fall to the lot of any man who is not in an eminent degree endowed with the requisite qualifications.”

The Founders wanted to balance the will of the populace against the risk of “tyranny of the majority,” in which the voices of the masses can drown out minority interests.

The Electoral College guarantees certainty to the outcome of the presidential election.

If the election were based on popular vote, it would be possible for a candidate to receive the highest number of popular votes without actually obtaining a majority. [11]

This happened with President Nixon in 1968 and President Clinton in 1992, when both men won the most electoral votes while receiving just 43% of the popular vote. [11] The existence of the Electoral College precluded calls for recounts or demands for run-off elections.

The electoral process can also create a larger mandate to give the president more credibility; for example, President Obama received 51.3% of the popular vote in 2012 but 61.7% of the electoral votes. [14] In 227 years, the winner of the popular vote has lost the electoral vote only five times. [2] This proves the system is working.

Explanation:

1. Why have problems arisen with music videos.

2. What positive influence has MTV had on popular music.

3. Why do you think that music videos have became so popular?

Answers

2.) MTV became a symbol and “defined culture” in the mid-eighties. As a result, “popular music became more visual while dancing and clothing styles became more important.” The market was profitable and trendy and the videos in turn helped to boost album sales exponentially.

3. ) In some ways, music videos have become just as or sometimes even more important than the artwork due to the way we now consume music. A video connects an artist and a listener, as well as connecting a listener to an audience. In many ways, they are an important medium for contemporary pop culture and technology.

( I don't know what #1 is..)

music videos have become popular cause it’s a way for people to interact with the song

Governments create regulation in order to
A. Reduce taxes on the country successful business
B. Make sure businesses do not harm citizens
C. Prevent inflation and control the price of goods
D. Build the infrastructure needed for a growing economy

Answers

Answer: C

Explanation:

Answer: B. Make sure businesses do not harm citizens

For example, the government puts in food safety standards to make sure that food companies do not sell spoiled products. Otherwise, people would likely get sick from eating those products. This is why choice B is the answer.

Choice A is false because regulations cost money to the government (since it costs money to hire government workers to enforce the regulations), which means reducing taxes only leads to less regulations. This is only if the government can't make up the revenue in some way.

Choice C is false since the government doesn't control the price of goods. That's left to the free market to figure out. I'm assuming you're referring to the US, but many other countries do this as well. Also in the US, there's the federal reserve which does try to control inflation. However they don't control the price of goods.

Choice D is false. Regulation doesn't build out infrastructure, but safety regulations are needed to ensure that infrastructure is safe for use. For example, guard rails on the road are one safety feature
