Apartheid was a system used in the 1900s that isolated people according to race. The white minority ruled and the policy discriminated against non-white population groups such as Natives, African Americans, and Indians. This system effected South Africa greatly because it led to South Africa’s new constitution, which is founded on the values of the advancement of human rights and freedom.

The brain area pinpointed is known to be intimately involved in some of the most advanced planning and decision-making processes that we think of as being especially human.
'We tend to think that being able to plan into the future, be flexible in our approach and learn from others are things that are particularly impressive about humans. We've identified an area of the brain that appears to be uniquely human and is likely to have something to do with these cognitive powers,' says senior researcher Professor Matthew Rushworth of Oxford University's Department of Experimental Psychology.
MRI imaging of 25 adult volunteers was used to identify key components in the ventrolateral frontal cortex area of the human brain, and how these components were connected up with other brain areas. The results were then compared to equivalent MRI data from 25 macaque monkeys.
This ventrolateral frontal cortex area of the brain is involved in many of the highest aspects of cognition and language, and is only present in humans and other primates. Some parts are implicated in psychiatric conditions like ADHD, drug addiction or compulsive behaviour disorders. Language is affected when other parts are damaged after stroke or neurodegenerative disease. A better understanding of the neural connections and networks involved should help the understanding of changes in the brain that go along with these conditions.
The Oxford University researchers report their findings in the science journal Neuron.
Professor Rushworth explains: 'The brain is a mosaic of interlinked areas. We wanted to look at this very important region of the frontal part of the brain and see how many tiles there are and where they are placed.
'We also looked at the connections of each tile -- how they are wired up to the rest of the brain -- as it is these connections that determine the information that can reach that component part and the influence that part can have on other brain regions.'
From the MRI data, the researchers were able to divide the human ventrolateral frontal cortex into 12 areas that were consistent across all the individuals.

Answer:
b) The type of cone.
Explanation:
When we do a research, there are two main variables to take into account. These variables are the independent variable and the dependent variable.
- The independent variable is the one that we can control as researches and that will have an effect on another variable.
- The dependent variable is the one that we don't really have control on and is the one that gets affected by the independent variable.
In this example, the experimenter studies the influence of ingesting sugar on memory.
The variable that the experimenter will control is the cone he will give to children (low calorie or high sugar) and therefore this is the <u>independent variable.</u>
On the other hand, he will later test if there are differences in memory between both groups (by counting the number of trials it will take them to learn new words) this variable, he won't be able to control it, so this is the <u>dependent variable </u>
Thus, the independent variable as we said before will be b) the type of cone.
