Answer: determined by a merit system based on civil service examinations
Explanation:
The <em>Pendleton Civil Service Reform Act </em>of 1883 was signed to overhaul Federal employment methods that favored political affiliation instead of merit.
In the 1870s, federal office holders were engaged in a form of patronage that would see them giving federal jobs to people who funded them or those who supported them politically.
This Act changed all that when it made it unlawful to give people jobs due to their political affiliation but rather on the basis of merit which would be determined by civil service examinations.
Answer: When I wash my hands, I use more than just water. I also use soap.
Explanation: When I first was my hands I find it useful to always use clean water. Upswing clean water helps prevent the spread of bacteria and helps reduce cross contamination to other surfaces or objects I might be working with. I find it useful to use soap when washing my hand. I lather my hands and scrub them well. This creates friction which lifts dirt, grease, and germs from the skin. Using soap to wash your hands is better than using just water because it lifts particulates and studies show that people tend to scrub their hands more thoroughly when using soap.
I think soap combined with water works the best especially if done for the correct amount of time which is at least 20 seconds. And you should always make sure to dry your hands properly as germs can be easily transferred by wet hands.
