Many difficulties in intercultural communication occur because people in different cultures have different: Group of answer choi
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

Assumptions about how people should think, behave, and communicate

Explanation:

People in different cultures are raised in different ways. As they grow, they learn the appropriate modes of behaviour according to their culture, and they are positively reinforced if they behave in such way, and reprimanded if they behave in the contrary way.

As a result, intercultural communication can be difficult because people will not necessarily understand that many of their assumptions are relative, not absolute truths.

How does voting affect society
enot [183]
It determines the election outcome, deciding better officials and making important decisions and establishing the policies that directly and indirectly affect many areas of our lives such as education, taxes, military operations, health care, food standards and legal codes.

Compared to non-voters, voters are more likely to volunteer, contact their elected officials, and stay informed about local affairs. It is associated with better health outcomes, reduced unemployment, lower recidivism rates.

Voting gives also an opportunity to an individual to exercise their freedom to vote, to express their opinion on a matter and directly impact who is elected.

Why did Texans declare independence from Mexico?
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

During the Texas Revolution, a convention of American Texans meets at Washington-on-the-Brazos and declares the independence of Texas from Mexico. The delegates chose David Burnet as provisional president and confirmed Sam Houston as the commander in chief of all Texan forces. The Texans also adopted a constitution that protected the free practice of slavery, which had been prohibited by Mexican law. Meanwhile, in San Antonio, Mexican General Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna’s siege of the Alamo continued, and the fort’s 185 or so American defenders waited for the final Mexican assault.

In 1820, Moses Austin, a U.S. citizen, asked the Spanish government in Mexico for permission to settle in sparsely populated Texas. Land was granted, but Austin died soon thereafter, so his son, Stephen F. Austin, took over the project. In 1821, Mexico gained independence from Spain, and Austin negotiated a contract with the new Mexican government that allowed him to lead some 300 families to the Brazos River. Under the terms of the agreement, the settlers were to be Catholics, but Austin mainly brought Protestants from the southern United States. Other U.S. settlers arrived in succeeding years, and the Americans soon outnumbered the resident Mexicans. In 1826, a conflict between Mexican and American settlers led to the Fredonian Rebellion, and in 1830 the Mexican government took measures to stop the influx of Americans. In 1833, Austin, who sought statehood for Texas in the Mexican federation, was imprisoned after calling on settlers to declare it without the consent of the Mexican congress. He was released in 1835.
