<em>"The Electoral College", </em>set out in Article II, Section 1 of the U.S. Constitution, allows states to have the same power of votes in spite of their number of population.

Due to that, a party could outcast the presidential candidate they don't want, even if such candidate was elected by the majority.

The parties nominate electors, usually by a central committee or the conventions; so when voters cast their ballot for President, they are actually voting for their <em>"State's Electors"</em>, who are not obliged to follow the results of the popular vote, thus sometimes <em>“faithless electors”</em> adversely choose a candidate they're not committed to.

A <em>"faithless elector</em><em>"</em> is simply a member of the "<em>Electoral College</em>" who votes against the party's candidate.  

Thereby the answer is (B): <em>"It allows for faithless electors, or electors who do not vote according to the wishes of their states"</em>

Answer:

Jake has gotten much quicker at creating databases after taking an online course.

Explanation:

Cognitive development can be defined as the development of thought processes, skills, knowledge and problem-solving abilities from infancy through adulthood.

Jean Piaget was a developmental biologist and psychologist who worked extensively on cognitive development in infants and teenagers; these are judgement, knowledge and thoughts.

Jean Piaget's stages of cognitive development in an ascending order are;

I. Sensorimotor: this is between 0 - 2 years (18 - 24 months) where the child exhibits object permanence.

II. Preoperational: this is age 2 - 7 years where the child acts in an egocentric manner.

III. Concrete operational: this is age 7 through age 11 and the child thinks logically at this stage.

IV. Formal operational: this is from adolescence (11 years) through adulthood and focuses on logically thinking about abstractions.

Simply stated, ability can be defined as the capacity (skill and competence) of an individual to perform a task.

The scenario which best demonstrates a person's ability is that, Jake has gotten much quicker at creating databases after taking an online course.

How might the lower classes having access to knowledge that previously was reserved for the nobility affect society?
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

Knowledge is an effective medium for lower classes to improve their social status.

Explanation:

Any society having a  complex division of labor will address its members into various categories within some sort of hierarchy of power. While in early societies access to knowledge was confined to the members of the upper class such as nobility and clergy. However, access to knowledge by the lower classes has changed that paradigm and became a ladder to climb upward in the social hierarchy.
