The Senator's Chief of Staff would oversee the scheduling staff.
Answer:
Benefit: Having a complete poll of every citizens candidate.
Risk: Some citizens will vote for any candidate or be there will be paid groups of non-opinionated voters.
Explanation:
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Non-violent resistance can be successful because it is a powerful way to show discontent to any injustice or support to another valid issue, conveying the message that violence is no need to unite people against the support of a common cause. Non-violent demonstrations and protests have demonstrated to be so powerful to make changes in different places of the world.
The examples of non-violent resistance that you have learned about are the cases of Mahatma Gandhi, the pacifist leader in India, who was the first to use non-violent demonstrations. Another good example would be Dr- Martin Luther King Jr, who supported non-violent demonstrations such as the March to Washington.
The issue that I feel non-violent resistance could encounter and limit success is that people cannot defend themselves in the case of police aggression or other types of aggression, such as another group who favor violence to stop those pacifist demonstrations.
This field of science is called Paleoclimatology. It uses residual elements left in nature and analyzes them in order to understand how paleoclimate worked. These residual elements are called proxies. Oxygen isotope ratios and pollen analysis are two of the many proxies paleoclimatologists use.
- Oxygen isotope ratios: the specific oxygen proxy is Oxigen - 18. Since there are shelled organisms (forams and diatoms) that are found in most water environments and which are able to record evidence of pas environmental conditions in their shells, they are very useful to discover how ancient climate was. This evidence is the presence of stable isotopes in these shells. Water molecules evaporate more off the lighter isotopes (Oxigen - 16) which means that if the water temperature was warmer than usual, the shell will be richer in heavy isotopes (Oxigen - 18). Therefore a shell which has more heavy isotopes indicates a warmer climate.
- Pollen Analysis: when paleoclimatologists want to use pollen they take an ice core sample off a glacier or an ice sheet. Each layer of the ice core will correspond to a specific period of time in the history of Earth. Pollen is found in all layers of an ice core and depending on its quantity allows an understanding of which plants existed in that particular period of time and how many of them there were. It also allows paleoclimatologists how rainy and warm the time period was.
