History
1 answer:
Sladkaya [172]3 years ago
6 0
The term caste is not an Indian word, however the caste system in India is the paradigmatic ethnographic example of caste. It has origins in ancient India, and was transformed by various ruling elites in medieval, early-modern, and, modern India, especially the Mughal Empire and theBritish Raj. The caste system divides Hindus into four main categories - Brahmins, Kshatriyas, Vaishyas and the Shudras. ... The main castes were further divided into about 3,000 castes and 25,000 sub-castes, each based on their specific occupation. Outside of this Hindu caste system were the achhoots - the Dalits or the untouchables.

rewona [7]

It honestly depends on their personal situation. Some may have gotten away or looked over (extremely rare and lucky), and some may have just survived.

The body is insane and will do anything keep us alive - that's it main job. Some people who go into shock manage to survive, as their body shuts off any unneeded parts - mental awareness, etc. Some people also may have just gotten lucky, and their bodies may have lived through what they went through.

Slogan <br> pagmamahal ng magulang sa anak<br>​
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

Ang pagmamahal ng magulang para sa bata ay ang pangunahing mga pangangailangan ng bata.

Paliwanag:

Napakahalaga ng pagmamahal ng magulang sa anak sapagkat ang bata ay nangangailangan ng pagmamahal at pag-aalaga ng mga magulang. Ang mga anak na nakakakuha ng pagmamahal mula sa kanilang mga magulang ay may mahusay na mga sikolohikal na kondisyon at maaaring makamit ang mas maraming tagumpay sa buhay kaysa sa isang bata na walang pagmamahal mula sa kanilang mga magulang. Kaya't napagpasyahan na ang pagmamahal mula sa magulang ay napakahalaga para sa bata upang makamit ang isang mabuting personalidad.
