Goryan [66]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

a. democratic in theory but often not in practice.

Explanation:

Special purpose districts are often also called hidden government systems as the action and duties or responsibilities of various officials and stakeholders is not clear for scrutiny by media. Also, in Texas there are over 1,100 educational special districts as such districts usually focus on only one special service. The lack of transparency makes it harder for the authorities to understand the internal bureaucratic system and therefore, they are considered democratic in theory but often not in practice.

Papessa [141]

Answer:

Take a village and divide the population in two, with an experimental group that will be given a different diet, and a control group which will continue with their normal diet.

Explanation:

In experiment design, when we want to test whether or not certain factor actually has a real effect on a population, one of the best methods to follow is to split the population in two groups: an experimental group, where we will apply the treatment, and a control group, where either a placebo or no treatment at all will be applied. The advantage of having both an experimental and a control group is that this way we can ascertain with much more clarity whether a change in the indepent variable (the treatment) has an observable effect on the dependent variable (the effect on the population).

In our example, a practical manner to test whether longevity in Russian Georgian villages is due to genetic or dietary factors, is to take one of the villages, and split the population in two groups: an experimental group, that will be given a higher calorie diet, and a control group, which will continue to consume their normal low-calorie diet. Then we would track the differences in age expectancy over time. If after a long enough period of time there's a difference in longevity between both groups, in other words, whether one of them leads longer or shorter lives than the other, then we can conclude that our test has proven that diet has a definitive effect on their longevity. If there's no significant difference, then we can conclude that diet has no relevance and it's all due to genetics.

Which is an effect of absolute poverty that also contributes to its cyclical nature?
ehidna [41]
It is Lack of education.  It is Lack of training. Absence of training is the underlying driver of destitution. A dismal misguided judgment infests our city: that Rochester's urban understudies can't be instructed until the point when we have tackled the issue of neediness. Trusting that poor kids can't learn simply prompts loss of motion. The main driver of neediness is absence of instruction
