Answer:

Quackery is the promotion of fraudulent or ignorant medical practices. A quack is a "fraudulent or ignorant phony person who claims to possess medical knowledge" or "a person who pretends, professionally or publicly, to have skills, knowledge or qualifications that he does not possess; a charlatan ».

The word quack derives from the archaic word of Dutch origin quacksalver (written "kwakzalver" in contemporary Dutch), literally "peddler of pomade." In the Middle Ages the word quack meant "to shout". The quacksalvers sold their merchandise in the market, loudly proclaiming it.

"Health fraud" is often used as a synonym for quackery, but the most notable feature of the latter is its more aggressive promotion (quacks quack !, "quacks do quack!"). Pseudomedicine is a term for ineffective treatments demonstrated, regardless of whether its advocates really believe in its effectiveness.

Describe some of the positives and negatives of feudalism.
mestny [16]
The positives were that you actually had a home and the negative was that you had a part of the military. another positive was that you had to chance to cultivate the downside was that you had to give a set amount of your harvested crops to your duke/duchess or whoever owns said land. I hope this will give you some pros and cons to feudalism

The Equal Protection clause is the last part of the Fourteenth Amendment of the Constitution of the USA. The full amendment reads:

"All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws."

All these rulings have actually had the effect of reinforcing the legal protections of very different minority groups (Hispanics, women, LGBTs). The SCOTUS has ruled that these protections apply both a the federal and the state level since according to the Constitution all states must ensure equal protection of the laws for all citizens born or naturalized in the United States. The court clearly considers these issues as relevant to everyday citizens.

Therefore, the correct answer is D. It has interpreted equal protection as applying to different groups of people.
