English
1 answer:
aliya0001 [1]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

In antiquity, systems of measurement were defined locally: the different units might be defined independently according to the length of a king's thumb or the size of his foot, the length of stride, the length of arm, or maybe the weight of water in a keg of specific size, perhaps itself defined in hands and knuckles.

Systems of Measurement: there are two main systems of measurement in the world: the Metric (or decimal) system and the US standard system. ... The US Standard system uses units that have no predictable relationship to each other.

Explanation:

For example, there are 2 cups in a pint, but 4 quarts in a gallon.

How does Shelley’s idea for Frankenstein fit the Gothic tradition?
Leviafan [203]
The correct answer is C. <span>It takes readers from a world of reason and science to a world of monsters and terror.
Gothic fiction usually has to do with something dark, mysterious, scary, and supernatural. Shelley's Frankenstein fits that description perfectly - it is a story about a monster being brought back to life, which is obviously supernatural. Gothic literature was especially popular during Shelley's time (19th century), but also even centuries before.

Why politics is ubiquitous?discuss?
Valentin [98]
I perhaps view politics a bit in reverse from most people. I see it as an expression of society and the state of a culture. Not only are politics ubiquitous but one can only understand them when they see them in every day life. 

<span>It's like a river. If you want to study a how a river flows, you can't scoop some water up. You have to understand several factors to why a river flows. Trying to isolate it will never reveal even that simple thing to you. If you really want to understand politics, study psychology and sociology. Study military history and especially study mass movements. </span>

<span>Only studying the specific occurrences is really just a matter of memorization, you won't ever understand politics until you realize that it being ubiquitous is a fundamental principle of politics. Don't get caught up on looking at one puzzle piece that you never realize where to put it.</span>
