The researchers present unshelled northern and southern periwinkles to northern and southern crabs in the second experiment to test if either population of periwinkles was unpalatable to either population of crabs.

Answer: Option D

<u>Explanation:</u>

The researchers picked up crabs and periwinkles from the northern and the southern location of Gulf of Maine. Then an individual crab was inserted into hutch companied with 8 size variable periwinkles. Following four set-ups were organized, where crabs involved were of both gender but not size variable and these set-ups were analyzed 12-14 times:

  • Northern crab and periwinkles
  • Southern crab and periwinkles
  • Northern crab and southern periwinkles
  • Southern crab and northern periwinkles

After three days of experiment conclusion drawn was: southern crab killed more number of northern periwinkles when compared with rest three set-ups. While second is northern crab and northern periwinkles, third is southern crab and periwinkles and fourth is northern crab and southern periwinkles.

Now, same set-ups as above was organized but with unshelled northern and southern periwinkles and conclusion researchers found that crabs catered themselves with all unshelled periwinkles within 1 hour to test if either periwinkles population was unpalatable to either crabs population.

Answer:

The correct response is Option C: They do not seek to fundamentally alter the status quo.

Explanation:

The Shriners organization is not considered a social movement because there is no real drive to change society behind the organization. Shriners International grew out Freemasonry, which is the oldest, and most widely known fraternity in the world. The Masonic lodges were begun by craftsmen who gathered after work in shelter houses or lodges. Over time, the members organized into Masonic guilds and eventually other men who were not craftsmen were allowed to join. Shriners International began in 1872 and Masons who complete their final degree so they become Master Masons are then eligible to join Shriners International. Shriners abide by the same principles as Freemasonry, but they also promote fun and philanthropy.
