People's point of view can change to suit changes in historical context.

Allow me to add some explanation about historical context and how that works.

When the Panama Canal was built in the early 1900s, the historical and political context was one of imperialism. President Theodore Roosevelt of the United States used military pressure and warships to force Columbia to recognize Panama's independence, and then arranged with Panama to cede a strip of land to the United States (for $10 million) so that the US could build the canal and control the canal zone for commercial purposes.

By the late 20th century, the historical and political context was much different, and imperialistic control of overseas territories was no longer in vogue.  In 1977, US President Jimmy Carter signed a treaty with Panama which agreed to give over control of the canal to Panama by the end of the century, with transfer of control taking place on December 31, 1999.   

Part of the reason for willingness to make that transfer was that the Panama Canal had become expensive for the United States to maintain and operate -- so that part of the historical context plays in also.  Since Panama took over the canal, they have actually done very well financially with it.  You could check out a good book on the subject,<em> The Big Ditch</em>, by Noel Maurer and Carlos Yu, published by Princeton University Press in 2010.

d. it holds the cell in its proper position

The plant cell wall is one of the important parts of a plant cell. It is considered to be the protective layer or gear of a plant cell located outside the cell membrane which supports the cell's structure. It is the main factor that affects the plant's actual shape. It also helps in determining what elements can only come in the plant cell in order to control or to prevent the destruction or the damage of the cell or the plant itself. It serves as a gatekeeper or even a strainer that strains out harmful elements away from the cell.

Answer: Hammurabi's Code

Explanation:

Hammurabi's code is one of the earliest known legal 'documents' in known history upon which a code of laws was written. It was named Hammurabi's code as it was written during the reign of King Hammurabi of Babylonia.

The code is notable for having some of the earliest basis for the law of retribution or simply put, the idea of "an eye for an eye" by including examples of scenarios where the law would be applied. For instance, the code talks about how a man who steals a cow must pay it back 30 times.
