When showing symptoms that make her look older than her age, Karla would likely be diagnosed with progeria.

<h3 /><h3>What is progeria?</h3>

It corresponds to a rare and non-hereditary syndrome, where a mutation of the LMNA gene, causing premature aging during childhood, reduces the patient's life expectancy.

Therefore, despite being an incurable syndrome, after diagnosis there is a delay in the genetic disorder through the use of drugs prescribed by a doctor.

How can a tax on foreign sugar and imports encourage trade in England​
rewona [7]

The Sugar Act was a measure taken by England against its colonies, prohibiting the consumption of any sugar that had not been produced by the English Empire, which in effect functioned as a settler tax.

The Sugar Act required settlers to pay a tax on any shipment of sugar that was not owned by the British colonies. With this, the autonomy of the colonists began to be threatened.

Explain why a group taking a vote on something is an example of direct democracy
Ainat [17]

  The direct democracy or pure democracy it´s a form of democracy in which the people directly decides on policy initiatives, it differs from the representative democracy; the one that it´s currently established in the majority of the countries; because in that the people choose the representantives and they are those who decide the policies to carry on. In the representative democracy the people do not govern, it´s a common mistake to mix both concepts.

  Two different forms of direct democracy are participatory democracy and deliberative democracy. The deliberative democracy is a form in which the deliberation it´s a central matter to the decisions and it is seen as an amalgalm of the direct and the representative democracies. It holds that for a democratic decision to be legitimate, it must be preceded by an authentic deliberation not a mere voting.

  The participatory democracy is one that emphasizes the broad participation of everybody but it demands to the citizens to be more involved in the political participation.

  I think that a group taking a vote on something is an example of a participatory democracy because everyone have the same power to create consensus and, at last it would win the iniciative that obtain more votes. If the example was a representative democracy then the group would have to vote for only one person to make a decision and then the group will follow the "leader" choice althought it goes against the majority of what the group wants.

I hope the answer to be useful for you. Regards.
