Answer:

At present, when democracy is spoken of as a form of social organization, it is generally understood as the most fair for the majority, so that in practice it should be the most beneficial for a society, and in this way progress could be made. Towards a better state. But what happens in countries where there is no real democracy as it is in Cuba, China, as well as some Arab countries where the form of government is rather authoritarian? Probably in those nations the idea of how to achieve that "it is better for the people" is different from what is thought in most countries today, or in the case of ancient Greece where democracy was considered one of the worst systems of government. That is why, given that Chile is currently a democratic country, in theory, it is necessary to analyze the true strengths and weaknesses of this way of governing as well as consider the question of really being in a democratic society.

Child obesity and eating disorders are growing problems in the U.S. Several of Mr. Thomas's middle school students fit these cat

levacccp [35]

Answer:

A) A gymnast

Explanation: I have found the types of student that are in this middle school.

a. Tanner, a gymnast, is a fanatic about exercise and has lost a lot of weight during the six months since school started. Mr. Thomas rarely sees him at lunch.

b. Brit seems to be on an emotional roller coaster. Mr. Thomas has noticed that one day she may gorge on her lunch, a friend's lunch, and extra snacks, but other days she skips lunch.

c. Carson is painfully thin. In class photos, he appears to be the thinnest boy in his classroom every year. When Mr. Thomas visits the lunchroom, he sees Carson eating a regular school lunch everyday.

D. Shawna is about thirty pounds overweight and is always on a diet. She tells Mr. Thomas that she has tried one diet after another but nothing has worked for her.

A gymnast is more likely to show signs of anorexia because the gymnast is obsessed with exercies and he lost a lot of weight during 6 months, which is a pretty long period and another factor is that Mr. Thomas rarely sees him when everybody is having lunch.
