Answer:
All the statements are true
Explanation:
Viscosity is affected by temperature. For example, if we put heat over some liquids like honey and syrup, they tend to flow more freely. On the other hand, if the temperature gets cold the viscosity tends to thicken (ex: engine oil of a car during winter). These examples make the first statement true: “Viscosity increases as temperature decreases”. Viscosity is affected by pressure too. To see a change in a “molecular level”, the pressure needs to be very extreme. This make the second statement true: “Viscosity increases as molecular weight increases”. Taking in consideration both statements, we can conclude that the third statement is also correct. When viscosity is put into heat and little pressure, it tends to lessen, since the interaction between the molecules decreases and the intermolecular forces decreases. On the other hand, by default, when viscosity is put in a cold weather and pressure increases, the level of viscosity thickens, since the molecules start colliding and their motion becomes disorganized.
Alexander's request was simple: he wished to sacrifice to Heracles in Tyre. (The Phoenician god Melqart was roughly the equivalent of the Greek Heracles.) The Tyrian's recognised this as a Macedonian ploy to occupy the city and refused, saying instead that Alexander was welcome to sacrifice to Heracles in old Tyre, which was built upon the mainland. Old Tyre held no strategic importance - it was undefended and the Tyrian navy was stationed in the harbours of new Tyre.

The Tyrian refusal to capitulate to Alexander's wishes was tantamount to a declaration of war. But, despite the youthful Alexander's growing reputation, the Tyrians had every reason to be confident. In addition to a powerful navy and mercenary army, their city lay roughly half a mile (0.8 km) offshore, and, according to the account of the historian Arrian, the walls facing the landward side towered to an impressive 150 ft (46m) in height. Whether they actually stood that high is doubtful and open to debate, but even so, the defences of Tyre were formidable and had withstood a number of mighty sieges in the past. The Tyrians began their preparations and evacuated most of the women and children to their colony at Carthage, leaving behind perhaps 40,000 people. Carthage also promised to send more ships and soldiers.
Alexander was aware of Tyre's supposed impregnability and convened a council of war, explaining to his generals the vital importance of securing all Phoenician cities before advancing on Egypt. Tyre was a stronghold for the Persian fleet and could not be left behind to threaten Alexander's rear. In a last-ditch attempt to prevent a long and exhaustive siege, he despatched heralds to Tyre demanding their surrender, but the Macedonian's were executed and their bodies hurled into the sea.
Answer:
The Republican Party today is basically a coalition of grievances united by one thing: hatred. Hatred of immigrants, hatred of minorities, hatred of intellectuals, hatred of gays, feminists and many other groups too numerous to mention. What binds them together is hatred of Democrats because they are welcoming to every group that Republicans reject.

Answer:
The correct answer is: <em>continuous distributions</em>
Explanation:
Personality traits reflect continuous distributions rather than distinct personality types. For example, when a person is referred to as neurotic or emotionally stable, it does not mean that the person can only be described in one of these ways and never the other. In other words, "neurotic" and "emotionally stable" are not qualitatively different traits. Instead, they lie on a spectrum (low to high) along a continuous distribution scale that ranges from high neuroticism to high emotional stability. Along this scale, a person can be right the middle where they are equal parts emotionally stable and neurotic. Thus, a person does not “have” or “not have” a personality trait but instead can possess varying amounts of it. This is because personality traits reflect continuous distributions<em> </em>rather than distinct personality types.
