Answer:

An illusory correlation

Explanation:

The term illusory correlation refers to an incorrect assumption that there is a high correlation between two unusual or rare items that do not interfere with each other's functioning. An example of this can be seen in the question above, where a Jonas found a $ 50 bill on the sidewalk and linked it to the fact that he was wearing a new jacket. The jacket has no connection whatsoever if there is a $ 50 bill on the sidewalk, but Jonas believes it does.

Answer:

The answer is - water vapor released from volcanic outgassing

Explanation:

The earth's interior contains minerals with hydrogen and oxygen, volcanic eruptions spewed gases from the earth's interior to the atmosphere through a process called Outgassing or Degassing which still continues today. Outgassing is the spontaneous evolution of gas from solid or liquid, degassing / degasification is the deliberate removal of dissolved gas from solid or liquids especially water or aqueous solutions. The continual outgassing or degassing process releases H2O as water vapor into the atmosphere (producing rain- rivers, lakes, oceans), carbon dioxide.

Forces of gravity prevent the water from leaving the planet.

I think the correct answer would be a general sense of mistrust. It would be hard for her to be at peace with people or trust people. She wasn't able to develop this sense of feeling even from her family. Hope this helps. Have a nice day.

scZoUnD [109]

TRUE, community-policing is the only police strategy that incorporates the problems encountered by the poor into decision-making by the police.

The police are the body of individuals empowered by the state to enforce laws, ensure the safety, health and property of citizens, and prevent crime and civil unrest. Their lawful powers include arrest and use of force authorized by the state through a monopoly on the use of force.

The police are generally responsible for maintaining law, order and safety, enforcing the law, and preventing, detecting and investigating criminal activity. These features are called policing.

Cops who issue speeding tickets and arrest murderers are examples of police.
