One of the main sources of conflict between environmental groups and corporations and even political institutions is climate change. There have been politicians who claim that climate change is inexistent, while science provides proof that it is fact. The interests of coal mining and timber corporations are most contrary to the enroironmentalist approach. Also, the palm oil industry has been said to damage the environment, as palm tree plantations are substituting the natural flora in many places. Agricultural bioengineering is equally destructive to the environment, as it reduces the diversity of species through the use of herbicides, and is also wreaking havoc among the bee population.

What explanation does the demon's prisoner give the brothers for why she collects her lovers' rings?

Anni [7]

Answer:

The rings that she collects from her lovers is a simple proof to show that women can do whatever they want and attain whatever they desire.

Explanation:

In "The Arabian Nights", the two brothers had just experienced that their respective wives had cheated on them. Shahrayar's wife had slept with the cook while Shahzaman's wife had slept with a slave. So, they both secretly went to the desert to look for a man whose life is more wretched than theirs.

But their encounter with the genie/ demon shows that their lives are not that wretched as they thought. The genie had a beautiful as a wife, but enclosed in a glass box. Whenever he sleeps, she comes out and sleep with other men, 96 in all. She also sleeps with the two men making the count to 98 for she keeps the rings of her victims/ conquests. She declares "<em>to think that jealousy and restraint can preserve a mistress, notwithstanding thy vigilance</em>." This decision to collect the rings of the men (most probably as trophies) is proof to show that women can do whatever they want and are capable of achieving whatever they desire.

Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

C. Naturalistic observation

Explanation:

Naturalistic observation consists in the systematic observation of human and animal behavior as it occurs naturally and spontaneously in its habitual environment. It can also be defined as the observation and systematic description of behavior in the context in which it naturally occurs. It is also referred to as ecological observation as it occurs in an ecological environment.

But beware, naturalistic observation is not necessarily observation of what occurs in nature. To say that it is observation of behavior in its natural environment means that one observes behavior in environments and situations that are not artificially created.

What is the difference between a selective college and an open college? What accomplishments are needed to be admitted to each?

zepelin [54]

An open college is usually open admissions. That means that so long as you have a HS diploma or GED, you will get in. They let in everyone who applies, basically.

A selective college gets so many applicants that they have to screen out those who don't meet certain standards, so for a selective college, you'd need to be in a certain GPA level and/or have an SAT or ACT score that falls into a certain range to get in. They admit only a certain percentage of those who apply.
