Answer:

False

Explanation:

The philosopher John Locke was the one who considered that all our knowledge comes from experience, from it is derived and reduced. In addition, he affirmed that when we are born, our mind is a  blackboard or a blank sheet of paper on which the experience is written. He argued that there is no empirical evidence capable of demonstrating that the mind of a newborn is not completely blank.

Answer:

The correct answer is B. The Great Compromise created two houses on Congress, one representing states equally and the other representing states based on population.

Explanation:

The Great Compromise of 1787 was originated in the creation of the American legislative bodies. It merged the Virginia Plan, that favored population-based representation, and the New Jersey Plan, which listed each state as an equal.

It established a bicameral system: one chamber in favor of the Virginia Plan, based on the population of the States, and the other in accordance with the New Jersey Plan, by which all States voted in equality.

This was an important issue in the new United States. The small States, with a small population, wanted their voices to be heard in the Congress, as well as those of large states with a large population, such as Virginia or New York. With its plan, Virginia wanted to have greater representation because a large percentage of the American population was in that state. In this way they would have control over what happened in the United States.

The Byzantine Empire was the only classical empire that survived into the postclassical period. Why did it survive when all the
madam [21]

Answer: the Byzantines were able to maintain their main areas. There were no attacks by tribal or pastoral people on Anatolia or Egypt, and just a few in the Black Sea region. For the most part the Byzantine Empire was not an expansionist empire, and this gave it more stability.  

The tax system and the bureaucracy were already in place, and the bureaucracy acted as a check on the nobility. It was good way for them to earn reputation by serving in the government. Under Justinian, a law code was created. It came directly from the emperor, establishing him as the ultimate authority on justice. This was an important check on the power of the nobility as well , helping to keep them from growing powerful enough to attempt to take over the central government. It gave the imperial office a lot of authority and prestige.  

Outside of Constantinople we see evidence of a strong agricultural economy. Although there were many large urban areas, the vast majority of the empire was made up of agricultural villages. They were the primary tax source and they supplied grain and agricultural products to the urban populations. At the same time, the Byzantines were the best economy in the region. They were the major trading power in the Mediterranean. They produced goods like textiles (especially silk), jewelry, and other crafts, but they also acted as the middleman for trade between east and west.

A growing cultural identity and social unity. The elements of this unity included, first and foremost, a long-lasting Roman identity. Byzantines believed they were keeping in the glorious Roman tradition, and they always presented themselves this way. Constantinople was also an important item of Byzantine unity. It was seen as the greatest city in the Mediterranean world and had overcame dozens of attacks. It was also portrayed as a whole Christian city, even if this wasn't actually true. There were lots of different kinds of Christians, plus Jews and later Muslims.
