Delvig [45]2 years ago

By analyzing what we know about gunas, we can say that the statement is false.

<h3>What are the gunas?</h3>

The gunas are a really important concept in Hindu philosophy, this concept, can be translated to "quality, peculiarity, attribute, property".

Now, there are 3 gunas, these are (and their traits):

  • Sattva (Goodness, Calmness, Balance).
  • Rajas (Passion, Activity, Egoism)
  • Tamas (Ignorance, Laziness, Violence).

Such that these 3 are in every person, just that the "distribution" is different person to person.

Now to the question:

The gunas are paths of knowledge, work, destruction, respectively?

First of all, guns are "properties" or "qualities" that people have, I'm not sure if we can call them paths.

On another hand, for example, you can relate "Tamas" to a "<em>path of destruction</em>", yes, but Tamas is way more than that. Tamas is also anxiety, ignorance, chaos, etc...

So the gunas are way more the 3 listed paths.

From that, we conclude that the statement is false.

Explain why air pollution on a global scale can affect air quality on a local scale?
Citrus2011 [14]

The vast pollution which occurs globally can have a significant impact on air quality on a local scale. The reason for this is quite simple: polluted air can easily get trapped beneath a cloud cover, or be literally "blown" away to other locations, and when much polluted air gets accumulated, it can have devastating heath effects on a local population, not just to humans, but to animals and plants as well. Overall, the vast global pollution can effect the smallest of regions on an unprecedented scale.

What kind of criticism is a poorly delivered criticism that can be harmful and malicious
inn [45]
With some types of criticism, it is intended as help or advise, and with others it’s intended to make someone else look or feel bad.

Example: Billy was attempting a handstand on a ladder. Suzy told him it was a bad idea, and that he should get down. This is an example of helpful criticism, because Suzy did not want Billy to get hurt.

Suzy bought a new sweater. Billy told her it was ugly and he would never be seen in public wearing it. This is poorly delivered criticism because it sounded cruel. Billy might have been trying to give helpful advice, but it sounded mean.

Explain and discuss the relationship between Prestige, Power and Income when examining Social Stratification.

Answer:

Social Stratification

She's from the wrong side of the tracks. He was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. This degree is my ticket to the world!

What do these phrases mean? They are referencing social standing or social stratification. Social stratification is a method by which societies categorize and rank members in a hierarchy.

Stratification is a key concept in sociology. Early societies didn't rank members. As societies evolved, they began to classify their members. Some categories, like landowners, received promotions. Others, like wage earners, seemed to be demoted.

Today, all societies use social stratification, though some countries are more stratified than others. The systems and the beliefs behind those systems are deep-rooted. Stratification systems impose inequalities that persist for generations.

Social Stratification in the U.S.

For example, in the United States, it's fairly easy to detect the 'haves' from the 'have-nots.' Today's Rockefellers still enjoy the wealth and status gained by family members in the late 19th century. On the other hand, some families of former slaves still struggle.

The U.S. stratification system is based on socioeconomic status or SES. SES is a categorization formula that considers a person's income, education, and occupation. Our society places a higher value on:

Wealth

Longer periods of education

Occupations that require advanced degrees

The sum of these factors is used to determine a person's general social class. Social class is important because the U.S. uses a class system of stratification. A class system is a stratification system in which a person's social status is based on achievement. For the most part, that means Americans can choose or earn social status. They are not locked into a particular status from birth. Class systems allow social mobility, which is movement up or down the social hierarchy. This is a unique characteristic of the class system. This equality of opportunity is often referred to as the 'American Dream.'

For example, the Rockefeller family owes their fortune to John D. Rockefeller. John was the son of a traveling peddler who'd been run out of town and accused of crimes. He was forced to drop out of high school. He set his mind to business and executed a series of timely oil deals. By age 38, his company controlled 90% of the oil refined in the U.S.
