Explain whether Japan's government more closely resembles the government of Great Britain or that of the United States.
stich3 [128]
 <span>Japan's government is nowhere near the US. For one thing the Japanese don't shoulder the responsibility of policing the world so they don't have to spend so exorbitantly on the military. 

I guess comparisons can be made between Japan and the United Kingdom. Both are constitutional monarchies, both have a Parliament form of government. Both have fairly elaborate social network built into their government. Once again neither has to spend as much on the military, intelligence, and arm twisting as the US so there is more money to spread around. The Japanese are far more efficient and culturally they put far more into accomplishment than making money for the sake of making money.</span>

Karolina [17]

This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is as follows:

The contemporary political ideology that is generally supportive of maintaining social and cultural traditions,  limiting the role of government in economic life, and ensuring a strong military defense is most accurately  classified as:

a. liberal

b. socialist

c. libertarian

d. conservative

e. theocratic

Answer:

The ideology described is the conservative (letter d) one.

Explanation:

The conservative ideology, or conservatism, values what is historically inherited, what is traditional, when it comes to culture, practices, and institutions. Conservatism sees society as a living organism in which institutions and members are all interdependent. Therefore, stability and continuity should be seen as crucial, since the existence and success of one depends on the existence and success of the other. Government is seen not as a master, but as a servant to people; its role should be limited.

Regarding the statement, "Her eye gathers light through her pupil and her lens focuses the light on her cornea," should we chang
Nina [5.8K]

Answer: option "b" is the most correct option. "Don't change pupil, and change cornea to retina".

Explanations:

The eye is the part of the body that aids our vision, it comprises of different parts which works together.

When our eyes focus on an object, light passes through the cornea (which is the outer part of the eye). But some of this light enters the eye through an opening called the pupil. This is why we can still say light enters the eye through the pupil. The iris helps to controls the amount of light the pupil lets in.

This light passes through the lens which works with the cornea to focus light correctly on the retina. This is why we have to change the cornea to retina.

When light enters the retina, this light is turned to photoelectric, by some special cells called receptors. This travels to the brain through the optic nerve for interpretation of the image.
