A farmer raises black and white chickens. To his surprise, when the first generation of eggs hatch all the chickens are black wi
Mariana [72]

Answer:

50% of the hatched chickens would be speckled, 25% would be black and 25% would be 25%

Explanation:

The black chickens are the dominant allele and the white chicken are the recessive allele. Since the black chicken is dominant, Let the genotype of the black chickens be (BB) and the genotype of the white chicken be (ww).

If the Black and white chicken are cross bred and the eggs hatched  are black with white speckles, i.e (Bw). The genotype of all the hatched chickens would be (Bw). Where Bw is speckled chicken.

If the hatched chicken with genotype (Bw) are interbred, the resulting hatched chickens genotype would be BB, Bw, Bw and ww for four offsprings. This shows that 50% of the hatched chickens would be speckled, 25% would be black and 25% would be 25%

The United States and Canada, as modern nations, do not experience social stratification. True False
VikaD [51]

Hey There,

False, the United States and Canada, as modern nations, do not experience social stratification. United States categorizes individuals based on their economic status by classes (Upper, Middle, and Lower) the most wealthiest Americans are in the Upper class while decent earning Americans are in the Middle class, the lower class represents Americans that are not financially prosperous and experience many troubles in the financial aspect of their lives (Bills, necessities, schooling, etc.) usually Americans associated in this class have troubles with providing for their family.

Studies show that Americans which are in the Lower class have a low literary rate. Due to lack of education, individuals have a hard time finding a decent job which as a result causes them to work for low pay which essentially is not enough for these type of individuals to provide for their families.

In conclusion, the most wealthiest are classified as the upper-class the middle earning are classified as middle-class and the lowest earning are classified as the lower- class. Therefore, the United States does experience social stratification.

Hope this helped!

Why have many of the 27 current amendments are the result of legal disputes, social unrest, and constitutional conflicts
Lady_Fox [76]

The Twenty-Seventh Amendment to the United States Constitution is by far the longest any Constitutional Amendment has taken to be ratified by the states. Its initial proposal began in 1789, and it took over two hundred years to complete the ratification process, finally ending in 1992.

The 27th Amendment deals with the salary of the members of Congress. It prohibits any law from increasing or decreasing the salary from taking effect and being implemented until the next term of office for the House of Representatives. The 27th Amendment is the most recent Constitutional Amendment to have been ratified, occurring on May 5th, 1992. Its proposal was submitted on September 25th, 1789.

The 27th Amendment was created with the purpose of limiting the power of the members of Congress to pass laws that would affect pay increases in their salaries which would create an obvious conflict of interest. The restriction would be necessary in order for Congress to keep in mind the needs of the people of the United States rather than their own.

The 27th Amendment would require that any call for salary increases to be imposed were to occur after an election. This would prevent members of Congress from immediately causing a salary increase when elected into office. In other words, Representatives must survive the election process before a raise in salary can take effect. 

The provisions held within the 27th Amendment were originally discussed in the North Carolina convention held in 1788, which was held for the purpose of discussing the Constitution itself. The 27th Amendment was originally drafted and proposed by James Madison, but it was not ratified by the necessary number of states. Only six states would approve ratification: Maryland, North Carolina, South Carolina, Delaware, Vermont, and Virginia; a total of ten was required for ratification. It was during this time that the first ten Constitutional Amendments were ratified, which would eventually become the United States Bill of Rights. 

The 27th Amendment has a peculiar history because of the simple fact that it took hundreds of years to be ratified. The proposal for this Constitutional Amendment was considered to be discarded and invalid during most of the time between its initial proposal and final ratification. A student from the University of Texas, Gregory Watson, can be attributed with having reawakened and sparked life back into what would become the 27th Amendment.

In 1982, Watson would stumble upon the legislation and make it the topic of a research paper. He would eventually set out to devote his personal time and efforts to make the ratification of this Constitutional Amendment a reality. During this time, pay raises would become the focus of public debates and disputes that were instituted by State legislatures.

<span>The concern would once again be turned to the salaries of Congress. States would begin to reconsider the Constitutional Amendment, but because its initial introduction some 200 years prior, many did not believe that the legislation would ever be ratified. However, by May 7th, 1992, Michigan would become the necessary thirty-eighth state to ratify the provision, thus making it the 27th Amendment. </span>
