Answer: Conflict Theory

Explanation:

Sociological theories propose reasonings as to how things in our environment are socially related.

The conflict theory was borne from the idea promoted by Karl Marx who exposed the conflict between the elite and the poor in the society. This theory shades light on the dynamic aspects of the society which is essentially negative. It promotes the believe that the elites in the society use their influence to subdue the poor and in effect, keep them under control.

This is highlighted in the example found in the above question, where the elite lawmakers used their influence to ban opium drugs, simply because of their anti - Chinese sentiments. This was after the Chinese labourers had contributed to the construction of the trans continental railroad.

When a shore parallel band is forming in the center of a lake, what process is happening at the surface over the center of the l
Genrish500 [490]

The correct answer is option A. When a shore parallel band is forming in the center of a lake, convergence is happening at the surface over the center of the lake.

Shore-Parallel Bands form when winds are light and heat from the lake causes rising air, drawing in air from both sides and forming one long band of lake effect snow; areas beneath such a band can receive enormous amounts of snow, while regions only a few miles away will receive very little, if any, snow.

Air is forced upward when it crosses the downwind shoreline due to friction with the earth surface, which slows down the wind and causes convergence close to the beach. The snowiest areas are those closest to and inside this convergence zone.
