You didn't provide answer choices, but the most likely answer is:

  • Absolute monarchy

<u>Explanation:</u>

Thomas Hobbes pointed to the social contract as the source of a government's authority, saying that a ruler got his power from the people over whom he ruled, not directly from God. But Hobbes' argument still supported a strong monarch style of government for the sake of a country's security and stability.  Whoever was put in charge of government needed to have absolute power, in his view.  Thomas Hobbes published his political theory in <em>Leviathan</em>  in 1651, following the chaos and destruction of the English Civil War.  He saw human beings as naturally suspicious of one another, in competition with each other, and evil toward one another as a result.  Forming a government meant giving up personal liberty, but gaining security against what would otherwise be a situation of every person at war with every other person.  So once the people gave power to a monarch, then that ruler needed to have absolute authority in order to maintain security and stability in the social order.

Why does the temperature in the thermocline decrease quickly with depth?
Gnoma [55]

Because of the fluctuation.

In most ocean regions, wind-driven circulation, which has been the focus of discussions so far, does not reach below the first kilometer of the oceans. The renewal of the waters below this depth is achieved by currents that are guided by differences in density produced by effects of temperature (thermals) or salinity (halinos). The associated circulation is therefore referred to as the thermohaline circulation. Since these movements are mostly quite slow, it is very unlikely to use direct current meters (current meters); they are usually estimated by the distribution of the physical properties of the water and the application of geostrophy.

The driving force of thermohaline circulation is the formation of water bodies. Water bodies with well-defined salinity and temperature characteristics are created in specific regions by surface processes; they then sink and slowly mix with other bodies of water as they move. The two main processes for the formation of water bodies are deep convection and subduction. Both are linked to the dynamics of the mixing layer on the surface of the ocean; thus, it is necessary to first discuss thermohaline aspects of the surface ocean first.

Why might socialization change, not just between families, but also within the same family over time?
topjm [15]
It seems that you have missed the necessary options for us to choose from so I had to look for it. Anyway, here is the answer. The reason why might socialization change, not just between families, but also within the same family over time is that parents have no experience when their first child is born, so every subsequent child is <span>socialized according to what has been learned with older siblings. Hope this helps.</span>
