Answer:

Battery

Explanation:

In common law, a tort is a civil wrong that caused harm to another person. Basic torts are: assaults, battery, false imprisonment, intentional infliction of emotional distress or transferred intend.

There is a difference between battery and assault as assault can be intentional only, without carrying out the threat ( pointing a weapon at somebody without firing it for example). Battery always include physical contact with the victim.

<em>Cody might sue Jimmy for battery as he actually attacked him and caused him serious bodily harm.</em>

Why should we have open immigration?
swat32

Answer:

<em>Because immigration is a natural process and a policy of open immigration avoid many of the problems, costs and negatives effects of illegal immigration.</em>

Explanation:

In a country with open immigration people will not use of fraud to get inside the country or to get work, that way the state doesn’t need to spend so much money in securing borders or investigating frauds and illegal workers.

With open immigration the immigrants are able to participate in the economy and pay taxes as other citizens, these increase the states income and the opportunity for investors, if they are illegal they can’t open a legal business, as happened in past with the Chinese’s for many years in US. Or they won’t need social welfare because they can have an income, that way they don’t have to be under the state’s support or be in custody in prisons.

They can also respond to law and have some responsibilities as other citizens without having all the native’s rights, this creates a more equal situation than when they are illegally immigrating.

horsena [70]

People with schizophrenia show neuroplasticity meaning that their brains undergo positive adaptive changes during cognitive training.

What is neuroplasticity?

Neuroplasticity is a broad word that refers to the brain's ability to alter, modify, and adapt its structure and function throughout life and in response to experience.

  • The ability of the brain to alter and adapt as a result of experience is referred to as neuroplasticity.
  • It is also known as brain plasticity. However, when people say the brain has plasticity, they do not mean that the brain is made of plastic.

Plasticity is described as the brain's ability to be "easily affected, trained, or controlled.

  • Neuro refers to neurons, which are the nerve cells that make up the brain and neurological system.
  • Thus, neuroplasticity is the process through which nerve cells alter or adjust.
