History

aalyn [17]3 years ago
3 0

Since we don't have the available answers, let's see what were the <u>main causes</u> of the Dust Bowl devastation:

I) Mechanization of agricultural operations. Because of World War I efforts food production had to grow which increased wheat prices. This caused an enormous increase in the size of farms and in the rhythm and size of their crops that weren't accompanied by adequate care of the soil.

II) Farming in the Great Plains. Because of several federal land acts since the 19th century, many farmers were settling in the plains believing rain would come once farming started. This and the belief in Manifest Destiny made people farm in regions where irrigation couldn't reach.

III) The Great Depression. In order to compensate for the decreasing wheat prices, farmers tried to plow up even more land and harvest bigger crops. This led to the plowing of native grassland that kept the soil stable.

IV) Drought. In 1931 started a drought caused by a lack of rain that would end only in 1939. This killed the crops and left the soil exposed. Without grassland and with the winds the soil was blown away in dust storms.

Which of the following is a potential barrier to efficiency?
Stels [109]

The correct answer is "Resignation."

What is a potential barrier to efficiency is "Resignation."

> It is not "Direction," because it provides the path to move to the desired place the organization wants to arrive.

> It is not "prediction," because it is a forecast of possible scenarios to be faced in the near future.

> It is not "Deliberation" because deliberation allows people to express their arguments in order to come up with a solution.

> That is why the correct answer is "Resignation."

> Resignation makes people assume a comfortable position in the company and they refrain to make their best effort.

> Let's have in mind that efficiency is "to make more with less."

> Efficiency is a key component to be effective in the corporate world.

We can conclude that to be efficient, employers need to be trained and constantly motivated to perform at the best of their capabilities. Otherwise, one of the risks is they can assume an attitude of resignation.

Before roughly 1500, Europe was largely on the margin of the world economy. True or false?
alexgriva [62]

It is false to say that Europe was on the margin of world economy before 1500.

Since ancient times, Europe has traded with the rest of the world as they knew it. They:

  • traded with the Mesopotamians during the Phoenician empire era
  • traded with the east during the Roman era
  • traded with the Middle east during the Muslim age

They even constructed large cities in the 1400s as a result of this trade such as Venice and Genoa.

In conclusion, it is false to say that Europe was on the margin of world economy before 1500 because they traded significantly.
