Answer:

The correct answer is b. the self-serving bias.

Explanation:

Self-serving bias refers to a cognitive bias where we attribute positive circumstances to ourselves, and negative circumstances to external factors. The self-serving bias makes us perceive ourselves in an overly positive manner. An example of a self-serving bias would be when we attribute getting an A on a test to our own abilities, hard-work and intelligence; but on the other hand if we fail a test, we attribute it to external factors such as the teacher being overly harsh or unfair.

OLga [1]

The correct answer is A) The Inca had a public education system under the oversight of a government authority.

The political policies of the Inca Empire were similar to the sultan’s policies in India, as described in the passage in that "the Inca had a public education system under the oversight of a government authority."

For the Inca people, education was a priority. And teh Inca emperor ordered to have a good education system in the empire. Although in the empire there were social classes, education was for all divided into two: the education designed for the upper classes and the education designed for the Inca people in general. The teachers that shared knowledge to the upper classes were known as the Amawtakuna; they were wise men that taught the high classes. Education in the other social classes was transmitted from parents to children.
