The best explanation as to why some plantation owners punished enslaved persons, was to keep them as helpless as possible.

The slaves in every plantation perpetually outnumbered the numbers of masters. This indicates that the buyers suspected that the laborers could rebel anytime and threaten their lives. To avoid this, the owners usually mistreat their slaves so as  to break their rebelling spirit

Further explanation

The treatment of captives in the United States varied by time and place, but was commonly cruel and humiliating, particularly in the estates. Punishment and violation was quite regular. There were contracts to which the master could turn over the mauling. Some of the masters were kind and educated, but not in big plantations. Only some of slaves acquired anything agreeing on decent treatment, and even that could disappear on such a moment as the death of the owner.

There was no situation ever recorded in which a slave, holding escaped to independence, retired intentionally to slaveholding, or even asserted that he was regretful he had escaped because he had been better off as a captive.

How did the writers of the U.S. Constitution put into practice the idea of separation of powers? A system of checks and balances
Gnesinka [82]
The writers of the US Constitution put into practice the idea of separation of powers by establishing three branches of government: the executive (responsible for the enforcement of laws), the legislative (responsible for the passage of laws), and the judicial (responsible for the deliberation of laws). These separate powers then became imbued with the system of checks and balances where no single branch can act completely independently from the other. Take, for example, the appointment of Supreme Court judges. 

Appointing a Supreme Court judge is a responsibility of the President, the head of the executive branch. The president will pick a judge thereby influencing the judicial branch. However, the choice must first be ratified by the legislative branch, thereby giving them a deal of power in deciding who is going to become a Supreme Court judge. So there you can see that all branches have a role in this process, none of which can occur without the other branch having an impact.

Hindu’s believed that the atman contains one’s personality. True or False
Verdich [7]

Answer:

fasle.

Explanation:

Atman in Hinduism is often translated as breath, spirit, soul, essence. It is defined as the true self of every person; however, it is not to be confused with consciousness of oneself or of the world, personality, the body, or any form of temporary identification. Rather, Atman, the true self, is a higher form of self and knowledge that, once acquired, would be identical with transcendental being or Brahman.
