1 answer:

4 0

The phrase "Manifest Destiny" promoted the idea that it was people's duty to establish themselves in the country, spreading their way of life and religion. The "Manifest Destiny" was used by people to basically say that God wanted them to take the land and force their culture and beliefs upon the Native Americans. It is propaganda because it was a way of persuading people to help acquire western land, a way to justify the desire of other people and find support simultaneously. So, the answer is "C. It made the taking of western land seem noble, instead of based on greed." Hope this helps!

Answer:

You will see an afterimage of the star in C. green hue.

Explanation:

The Opponent-Process Theory explains that an individual's perception of colors operates under 3 opposing systems:

Black vs. white
Red vs. green
Blue vs. yellow

An individual perceives a hue based on 2 colors but he/she can only see one of these opposing colors at once.

In this case, if you stare at a red star, you are looking at the red vs. green system so once you are done looking at the red, you will see the green afterimage of it, since green opposes red.

Which of the following is true of intuitive decision making?

FrozenT [24]

The correct answer is E. It involves making decisions based on distilled experience. Something that is 'intuitive' is not rational, nor it comes from our conscious thought. It is not a complete emotion neither, it is more of a feeling that we have based on something that we saw or did, that belongs to the past experience. It is not necessarily slow, as it just emerges out of our subconsciousness.

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Unfortunately, you forgot to attach the options for this question.

However, doing some research we can say the following.

The view of the origin of life argues that God created the natural laws of the universe and the building blocks of life with the eventual emergence of life in mind, but then He stepped back, let creation unfold naturally, and life eventually emerged from non-living material. We are talking about progressive creationism.

Douglass R. Groothu was a proponent of progressive creationism, Groothuis thinks that traditional views, such as the doctrine of creation ex nihilo and the special creation of Adam and Eve, are flexible in their specifics.

Douglass R. Groothuis is an American philosopher that has dedicated part of his research to investigate moral and ethical issues in modern societies and how this affects the culture and traditions of people. One is his recent works is how the internet has changed people's behavior and affected the way they live.
