Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

It is right for university lecturers to do so, since they are not breaking any law or regulations, from my own point of view. You said that we should assume that the said lecturer, Professor Harry is my supervisor and he just published the results of is research- his own research, the research belongs to him, the research is his intellectual property and he should have the right to sell or not to sell.

Let us consider the Bayh-Dole Act, which allowed universities to keep and profit from the patents their students and researchers developed on campus using federal funds.

So, if this is allowed, professors should also be able to commercialize their research(es).

Answer: All or nothing thinking

Explanation:

All-or-nothing thinking is one of several cognitive distortions, meaning automatic ways of regularly reading a circumstance that makes people not contemplate different approaches. It´s a negative thought process common within people dealing with panic disorders, anxiety, and depression.

All-or-nothing thinking leads to thinking only in extremes, in terms of success or failure, in a binary scheme that leads only to negative evaluations of ourselves and others.

Define the terms for Canada autocratic , oligarchic and democratic
netineya [11]
Gotcha and not with those textbook definitions.

Lets say we own a herd of goat.  I dont even know if you can have herd of goat or if its called something but back to the point,

In a democratic society, every goat would have an equal chance to represent who they want to be their rancher.  They can express their views openly without any legal prosecution.  However, they dont just choose one person to lead them.  Lets say that theres a group of white colored goats.  These goats can vote for one goat to represent them as whole.  Same with the brown-colored goat.  Same with the black-colored goat.

(And no, please, if someone takes this as racist then I am done.  That is not what im going for)

Now an autocratic society has the rancher with absolute power (like a dictator).  He can control everything to his needs and he does not need to benefit the majority of the people, only the people that will keep him in power (which is why there is no such thing as a Dictator that will help the people.  If he does help the people, he loses the support of his closest allies who had him in power, and he is now tossed out of power).

Finally, an oligarchic is a bit harder to represent with goats but lets say we had some European Goats and some American Goats who used to be European.  They decided to sail across the sea to find "new land" and start there own government... But of course, that European Goat sees the American Soil that the goats now herd on as having lots and lots of grass, which is depleted in Europe due to the large amount of Goats.  They decide to create a charter to grant the American Goats rights to the land only if they send grass back home.

I hope this helps people understand these concepts as I just really came up with the metaphors for it and wow, I already love my own post

Sveta_85 [38]
I believe the answer is: <span>stay in the presence of the soldier until the order has been obeyed

According to millgram experience, an individual will much more likely to do something if it's dictated in the presence of someone that he/she recognized as an authority. In the scenario above, we could make the assumption that the presence of the officer would most likely make the soldier feel pressured to follow the order.</span>
