Describe the challenges faced by those who wish to change toponyms
matrenka [14]

Answer:

To change a toponym of one place is not so easy to do. This process is usually connected to political changes in different parts of the world.

The toponym change is a sensitive topic, as the name of a place represents the symbol of that place, its identity, and ethnicity. One toponym is related to that place and to people from that place.

Explanation:

Also, when changing the toponym, people should take care of the new name, if it will be in a context of nationalism or internationalism. People connect te name of the place with the location of the place, so it is not easy to adopt a new name, as part of identity is fading.

If the toponym is changing, it has to fit the society, what is the meaning of that new toponym, is it related to the nation, the historical background of the toponym, etc. Those are elements that are influencing the acceptance of a new toponym.

Absolute age examines the position of rocks in a sequence. true or false?
Vedmedyk [2.9K]
No, this is statement is false!

An absolute age is not dependent on anything - it's the age in "years" not "older than" or "younger than".

The position of rocks is more inherent to the relative age of the rocks- relative to the other layers of the rocks.

What is your reflection on the lifeboat ethics by hardin (a half page answer)?
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

A lifeboat is a boat, specially made to move from land to sea to help people who are in difficulty. Garrett James Hardin, an American environmentalist uses this description of lifeboat to warn of the dangers of human overpopulation which does not only affect the populated nations but everyone. The rich people (mostly the Americans) are the ones in the lifeboats, and the poor ones are in the waters swimming and trying to board any of the lifeboats. The nations who are like lifeboats have a specific-carrying capacity (or limited amount) that should not be exceeded.  

If there are fifty people in the lifeboats with ten free spaces that could be given to hundred poor people waiting to be saved, further explanations were offered by Hardin on what to be done. Allowing everyone in, which would mean hundred and fifty people are in the boat at the same time could make it sink. The ten spaces could be offered on who arrives first or the best ten from the hundred poor people could be allowed to come on board. There are some people, among the lucky fifty rich people who would feel guilty according to Hardin, that the remaining ninety could die and so they are willing to give-up their spaces for the less fortunate ones. The best solution would be for no one to be allowed into the boat, preserving the lucky fifty from sinking with the boat as stated by Hardin.  

Nations are not actually lifeboats and the human race have grown beyond being measured to have a limited number of persons it can contain as stated by Hardin. The possible maximum number of persons a particular area can contain should never be important to mankind where there is a terrible event affecting human beings. Also the lucky fifty in the lifeboats may think they are safe, but they could be affected by a huge wave in the sea that would make the entire lifeboat nations to drown.
