Answer: The British believed the partition would ease tensions between Muslims and Hindus.

Explanation:

The tension between Hindus and Muslims was at the center of the partition of British India. While the central and eastern regions were dominated by Hindu Indians, the west was dominated by Muslim Indians. British understood there were irreconcilable differences between them. The compromise to split colonial India into Pakistan (Muslim majority) and India (Hindu majority) was the British strategy to secure agreement over independence.

Do we need it now electoral college
ki77a [65]
Yes. Without the Electoral College, it would diminish the influence of smaller states and rural areas of the country; lead to more recounts, contentious fights over provisional ballots, and conflicts over the results of presidential elections; and encourage voter fraud. It could also radicalize American politics and lead to Presidents who are elected with very small pluralities, or who failed to qualify for the ballot in all 50 states and the District of Columbia.

Dying of cancer, Janice promises God that she will devote her life to the church if He lets her live. According to Kübler-Ross,
Anarel [89]

Answer:

Bargaining

Explanation:

Elizabeth Kubler-Ross developed a theory according to which people go through 5 different stages in the process of dying and grief:

  1. Denial: First, the person cannot accept the diagnosis from the doctors or can think there is a mistake and that he/she cannot be dying.
  2. Anger: In this stage, the person gets angry, usually at God, and gets upset and often wonders why is this happening to him/her.
  3. Bargaining: During this stage, the person says <u>she would do anything in exchange for not dying, he/she will make promises</u> (go to church, be a better person) to survive. These promises are usually made to God.
  4. Depression: The person accepts that bargaining will not work and will start a process of sadness, starting to recognize the reality of death.
  5. Acceptance: The person has come to terms with the fact that he/she is going to die and starts saying her goodbyes and reviews the life he/she has lived and makes arrangements referring to her/his death.

In this example, Janice is dying of cancer and she promises God that she will devote her life to church if he lets her live. We can see that s<u>he is bargaining and promising something in exchange for not dying</u>. Therefore, we can see that she is exhibiting the response of bargaining.
