Yakvenalex [24]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The correct answer is option C) Human nature is essentially and innately good.

Explanation:

Confucianism is an ethical philosophical concept rather than a religious one. It focuses on the innate ability of human nature to be good.

A well known Confucianism philosopher, Menicus, was the one who brought this theory forward. He thinks that human nature is intact, unless an external force tries to break it down.

He further had the view that if this innate ability of goodness is worked upon, it can be turned into a virtue.

What was the effect of climate change and economic depression on the Ming Dynasty?
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

Based on the reconstructed temperatures, precipitation changes, and occurrences of extreme climate events, together with historical records on fiscal deterioration, food crises, and the frequencies of popular unrest, rebellions and wars, we identified three principal ways in which climate change contributed to the collapse in the Ming dynasty. Firstly, cooling, aridification, and desertification during a cold period destroyed the military farm system, which was the main supply system for the provisioning of government troops on the northern frontiers; these impacts increased the military expenditure from 64 % of total government expenditure in 1548–1569 to 76 % in 1570–1589 and thus aggravated the national fiscal crisis that occurred during the late Ming dynasty. Secondly, climate deterioration (e.g., cooling, aridification, and an increase in the frequencies of frost- and drought-related disasters, etc.) led to a 20–50 % reduction in the per capita production of raw grain in most areas of China, which resulted in widespread food crises and exacerbated the vulnerability of social structures during the last several decades of the Ming dynasty

How do you think an arch formed? How do you think the dam affects the movement of sediment? Write a sentence that explains what
Sindrei [870]

<em>An arch is formed by process of erosion which can be played by wind, water flow or other elements.</em>

<em>The dam affects the movement of sediment by preventing and controlling the flow of the solids.  </em>

<em>Wall Arch is normally a rock curved shaped as with an opening underneath it.</em>

<em>Erosion, mass wasting and weathering are three process that cause Wall arch collapse.</em>

<em>One way gravity  helps glaciers shape landforms is by attracting the glacier to lower elevations, the glacier then freeze out close lands and soil and rock will stick to it, again gravity then helps the glacier move quickly, because it became heavier with the new agglomerated mass.</em>
