Answer:B. Accommodation

Explanation:

Jonas was told that an animal with fur is a dog so when he sees the cat for the first time, the first thing that comes to mind is a dog however when the cat makes a "meowed"sound , based on sound differences he could see this wasn't a dog and his parents told him that this is a cat.

Now he has to modify his schema to accommodate this new information

government and the wealthy benefit from the existence of the poor and this is the main reason why poverty continues to exist bri
seropon [69]

Answer:

Poverty and wealth are often found side by side. They are two dimensions in our world that are interrelated because they affect each other and influence both the willingness and capacity of states to ensure a stable global system. Traditional approaches to IR are premised on the notion of state sovereignty. But, sovereignty as an absolute concept that reinforces separation between states has been tempered through the many processes of globalisation, including economic agreements and the establishment of international organisations, as well as with the emergence of human rights thinking as captured through the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. With respect to the emergence of human rights thinking, the premise goes that in the context of a common set of universal rights based on the individual, the sovereignty of the state can be challenged if a government does not respect or maintain these rights. Here, sovereignty means that a state does not only maintain rights, it also meets its responsibilities. Poor people are cheated out of their savings and the rich flaunt their money like it's honest and hard worked generated money.
