States are given electoral votes equivalent to their populations. During the Presidential elections, the candidate with the most votes takes all the votes assigned to that state. For example, winner takes all.


The purpose of this formula is to insure that rural or lightly populated areas of the nation are still afforded some representation and consideration by candidates and politicians.


If the electoral college were not in place and the President was elected by a simple majority then candidates would completely disregard over 75% of the nation that is sparsely populated. For example, they would only campaign in the densely populated urban areas of the coasts and major cities.

Answer:

C)The caste system determined people’s occupation on the basis of their caste.

D)A strong patriarchal system was formed, which lowered the status of women in society.

These are the two characteristics that show the strong influence of Hindu beliefs on society during the Gupta period. Hindu beliefs developed over a long period of time in the subcontinent. While many beliefs are much older, Hinduism as a whole began to take shape after the end of the Vedic period (1500-500 BCE) and flourished during the Medieval period. Hindu beliefs were responsible for many of the social structures that were present in the Gupta period, such as the caste system and the patriarchal system.
