History

Allushta [10]3 years ago
6 0

Women have longer life expectancy than men because it is biologically supported. <u>Firstly, women engage less in behaviors that are bad for health than men</u> such as excess smoking and drinking. In addition to that, <u>women currently better profit from advanced health care and better living conditions</u> such as regular medical check-ups.

Moreover, from the genetics perspective, when mutation occurs of one gene of the X chromosome, <u>women have another X chromosome for compensation which increases their resistance to biological aging</u>. Lastly, men participate in activities/works especially those that <u>utilize more muscles and energy that result into their worn out state faster than compared to women .</u>

What are the 3 names Russia is known by (Cold War)
eimsori [14]

Answer:

The Cold War was a period of geopolitical tension between the Soviet Union and the United States and their respective allies, the Eastern Bloc and the Western Bloc, after World War II. The period is generally considered to span the 1947 Truman Doctrine to the 1991 dissolution of the Soviet Union. The term "cold" is used because there was no large-scale fighting directly between the two superpowers, but they each supported major regional conflicts known as proxy wars. The conflict was based around the ideological and geopolitical struggle for global influence by the two powers, following their temporary alliance and victory against Nazi Germany in 1945.[1][2] The doctrine of mutually assured destruction (MAD) discouraged a pre-emptive attack by either side. Aside from the nuclear arsenal development and conventional military deployment, the struggle for dominance was expressed via indirect means such as psychological warfare, propaganda campaigns, espionage, far-reaching embargoes, rivalry at sports events and technological competitions such as the Space Race.
