Kya has read two myths, each from a different culture, about a great flood that destroyed the world. Read the following summarie

s. In the first myth, the world is destroyed because the people had become very wicked and had strayed from religious behavior. God warns one righteous couple in advance. They build a great boat and save themselves, their family, and two of every animal. In the second myth, the Earth floods because it is thrown into a great ocean by a demon. The Earth and its greatest sages are saved by a saintly king who recognizes the gods’ instructions as they are issued from the mouth of what appears to be a fish. Based on the summaries, which statement comparing the cultural contexts of these myths is accurate?
A. Both myths suggest a belief in evil non-human beings that protect the Earth.
B. Both myths suggest that the myth-tellers ate fish.
C. The tellers of both myths seem to believe that their god can speak through the mouths of animals.
D. The tellers of both myths seem to believe in a god who protects those who are saintly or righteous.

Hello there!
The answer would be D. You can immediately eliminate both B and C because it does not apply to both stories at once. You can also eliminate A because according to both myths, saintly beings protect the earth, not evil ones. Therefore, the only answer is D.

In Federalist 78, Hamilton wrote that the Supreme Court was “the least dangerous branch” of govern- ment. What did he mean by th
posledela

Answer:

What Alexander Hamilton meant was that out of the three branches of the government (Executive, Legislature and the Judiciary), the judiciary (Supreme Court) has almost no power to exercise on it's own, thereby making it "the least dangerous branch".

Explanation:

When Hamilton wrote that the supreme court was the least dangerous branch of government, he meant to say that the court has no authority or power to exercise very the other executive or legislature, nor can it act without these two. In short, is is nothing without these two. While these two can do things without it, the same isn't for the  judiciary. The judiciary branch is the weakest branch of the government as it has no influence over either "the sword or the purse", without any force or will to exercise it's powers. It's basically an unnecessary need. Yes, what he said is true due to the fact that no laws can be passed without the consent of the other two branches, while things can be done without the knowledge of the judiciary. Courts need the permission of the Executive, the President or the Head of the Country to make any decision.

Below are works-cited entries for a book in print with more than two authors. Select the one that is completely correct.
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

The correct answer is <u>ENTRY C. </u>

Explanation:

"et"= and (since it is a complete word you don't need a full stop)

"al." = others (you must include the full stop because this is an abbreviation)

"et al." is a latin abbreviation that means "and others".

We use it when acknowlegding a text that has more than two authors. So, if there is less than two authors don't use it!  Entry C has the correct punctuation, although options may vary depending on the referencing format that you are required to use as a guideline.

Entry A is incorrect. Because in the world of academic language we try to avoid "and others" when referencing.

Entry B is incorrect.  Because "et" doesn't take a full stop since it is a complete word.

Entry D is incorrect. Because after the name of the author you should include a comma, unless you use "et al." for an in-text citation.
