Answer:

Here is an example of someone prejudging (prejudice) another. Let's say there is a homeless person who is trying to ask for money to feed their son or daughter tonight. A person may approach the homeless man, and the homeless will say "Excuse me sir, do you have any change to spare." The man may look at the sign that the homeless person to up and it says "Trying to feed my daughter tonight." The man laughs, and he says what the sign says. Then, he says "Yeah right you are trying to feed your daughter." "More like spending money on alcohol or drugs." This is practicing prejudice because you judging someone before even knowing them.

An example of discrimination would be if a woman for example doesn't get the same amount of money as a man does if they work the same job. A woman may get paid less because they are not meant for the job, or they say that women always get paid less. This is discrimination because you are not giving the woman the same treatment as the man if they worked the same hours. It may go to a point were a woman works more than a man, but she still gets paid less.

Prejudice- unfair opinions to a group or a individual

Discrimination- mistreatment to one or a group.

Hope this helps!

Harrizon [31]

Jews were monotheists—they believed in and worshipped only one god. This stands out to historians because monotheism was relatively unique in the ancient world. Most ancient societies were polytheistic—they believed in and worshiped multiple gods.

In “Ambush,” which sentence best reflects the idea that O’Brien is more concerned with emotional truth than factual truth?
NemiM [27]
When we read "Ambush" we soon realize that it is quite true what one might suspect about O'Brien when we read about him - the fact that indeed he always seemed to wanted to hear emotional truth more than he did factual truth. There are multiple sentences which indicate this, but most commonly these are sentences when he starts talking and conceptualizing events in terms of their meaning, how they affected someone and how someone felt while they happened.

Male euglossine bees harvest the pollen and fragrance compounds from orchids, typically a specific species, and display these in
Greeley [361]

Answer:

coevolution

Explanation:

Male euglossine bees harvest the pollen and fragrance compounds from orchids, typically a specific species, and display these in various ways. The female euglossine bee is thought to choose a mate based on the quantity and/or quality of fragrance mixtures presented. The orchids pollinated by these bees have evolved elaborate trapping mechanisms that will often only allow a single species of bee to enter and collect the fragrance; the trap will then force the bees to exit in a way that attaches the orchid's pollen to them. The elaborate courtship ritual and flower development both act to enhance the reproductive success of the insect and orchid, respectively. This is an example of coevolution.

Coevolution occurs when two or more species reciprocally affect each other's evolution.
