The sumerian kings, also known as kings of sumer (the earliest known civilization located in the historical region of southern Mesopotamia, known nowadays as southern Iraq) were characterized for their superhuman feats and heroism. During the late 4th millennium BC, <em>Sumer was divided into many political independent regions called city-states,</em> which were divided by canals and boundary stones. Each of them had in their centers a temple dedicated to the particular goddess, patron, and god of the city and conquered by a religious ruler (ensi) or by a king (lugal) who was linked to the city's religious rites. Sumerians in the city-states practiced polytheism and each of these city-states were governed by a king, this position later on became hereditary. In addition, the Sumerian city-states rose to power during the prehistoric Ubaid, and Uruk periods. Ubaid period that took place between 5000–4000 BC, during this time the movement towards urbanization began, also agriculture and animal domestication were practiced in sedentary communities. Moreover, this period was associated with intensive irrigated hydraulic agriculture, and the use of the plough.  On the other hand, Uruk period (4100-2900 BC) was characterized for the beginning of the emergence of cities across the landscape. Although this period was named for the "first city" of Uruk, Eridu was the orginal first city.

<u>The answer is city-state.</u>

<u>1. In Sumerian city-states, politics and religion were intimately related. The governor was the Prince-priest. the "High priest" or "Patesi", who represented the deity.</u>  The priest administered the government of the city, the income of the temple, led the soldiers, supervised the maintenance of the canals and organized the cult. The temple then played a fundamental role. It was the axis of political, religious and also economic life.

<u>2. With the expansion of the Sumerian cities, the administration becomes more complex and there is a change in the attributes of the Patesi,</u> who will be dedicated exclusively to worship.

<u>3. Military leaders converted into Kings will perform the rest of the functions. These kings will maintain the division of Mesopotamia into small states: each city, was a state in itself</u>, with its own institutions of government, did not depend on a regional or imperial major power.

In engineering, physics and chemistry, the study of transport phenomena concerns the exchange of mass, energy, charge, momentum and angular momentum between observed and studied systems. While it draws from fields as diverse as continuum mechanics and thermodynamics, it places a heavy emphasis on the commonalities between the topics covered. Mass, momentum, and heat transport all share a very similar mathematical framework, and the parallels between them are exploited in the study of transport phenomena to draw deep mathematical connections that often provide very useful tools in the analysis of one field that are directly derived from the others.

The fundamental analysis in all three subfields of mass, heat, and momentum transfer are often grounded in the simple principle that the total sum of the quantities being studied must be conserved by the system and its environment. Thus, the different phenomena that lead to transport are each considered individually with the knowledge that the sum of their contributions must equal zero. This principle is useful for calculating many relevant quantities. For example, in fluid mechanics, a common use of transport analysis is to determine the velocity profile of a fluid flowing through a rigid volume.

Transport phenomena are ubiquitous throughout the engineering disciplines. Some of the most common examples of transport analysis in engineering are seen in the fields of process, chemical, biological,[1] and mechanical engineering, but the subject is a fundamental component of the curriculum in all disciplines involved in any way with fluid mechanics, heat transfer, and mass transfer. It is now considered to be a part of the engineering discipline as much as thermodynamics, mechanics, and electromagnetism.

Transport phenomena encompass all agents of physical change in the universe. Moreover, they are considered to be fundamental building blocks which developed the universe, and which is responsible for the success of all life on earth. However, the scope here is limited to the relationship of transport phenomena to artificial engineered systems.[2]

Cuales son las características del cine latinoamericano?
Margaret [11]

Answer:

El cine latinoamericano se refiere colectivamente a la producción cinematográfica y a las industrias cinematográficas de América Latina. El cine latinoamericano es rico y diverso, pero los principales centros de producción han sido Argentina, Brasil y México. El cine latinoamericano floreció después de la introducción del sonido, que añadió una barrera linguística a la exportación de películas de Hollywood al sur de la frontera.

All are key differences between political parties and interest groups, except:
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer: C)

Explanation:

The correct answer is C). Interest groups are not nominating candidates, that is the work for parties. Parties want to win elections because they are seeking the control of the government while interest groups are looking to gain the public and to inform them about everything that is happening.

Interest groups want to influence public policy and that is the major difference between those two.

Do you think films like The Help offer audiences a way to challenge our own co-culturally ingrained stereotypes or do they simpl
igomit [66]

Answer:

Following are the solution to this question:

Explanation:

Most movies get a fundamental purpose to influence the viewer to make them relate to a certain degree of a film's past. This film "The Help" certainly would make an impact on the viewers, when given a proper amount of time and understanding. You were bound to think about something in another context when they look at this and seek to explore all possibilities or viewpoints where a particular community is seen. However, a section of the crowd will always only look at some stuff from either a personal perspective, regardless of who sheds sunlight on it.
