Early agrarian societies learned how to harness water with the use of oxens and horses. It was the power of muscle that was greatly used centuries ago in order to provide irrigation to water in various farms. This was very effective, but as energy was discovered, this method became obsolete.

Sociologists argue that what is considered deviant varies from culture to culture. Give an example of something that might be co
Mkey [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

<u>One of the examples of behavior that would be considered deviant in one society and not in the other is the eating of certain animals. The examples are:</u>

  • Some societies in India consider the cow a sacred animal and never would consume beef.
  • Muslim societies do not eat pork meat.
  • Insects are considered a tasty snack in many countries, including Thailand, while it would be considered gross by many people from the west.
  • While some of the western European countries (like France and Belgium) have specialized butcher shops and restaurants for horse meat, eating it would most likely be considered taboo in the US or UK.
  • The most radical example is the eating of dogs, which occurs in some Asian countries, most notably China. There is even a whole festival for dog meat consumption in Yulin, and every year there are protests across the globe because of this event. Slaughtering dogs for meat consumption is prohibited in the US and plenty of other countries.

<u>With all of this, we can conclude that some food consumption can be seen as deviant in some parts of the world, while in others it is a normal occurrence and part of the every-day diet.</u>

Despite various taboos and laws, what we have to understand is that our connection to the animals is culturally constructed. The fact that people of the US feel closer to dogs, cats, and horses, but not to sheep and pigs, is not the fact supported by nature. There is nothing in nature itself and the nutrition of horses, insects, and various other species that prevents us to eat them. These deviances surrounding different meats are all culturally constructed. <u>This does not mean they are less real or that we should eat all the animals, just that we have to realize that our ways are no naturally more or less right than someone else’s.</u>

The correct answer is Sigmund Freud

According to Freud's psychoanalytic theory, all psychic energy is generated by libido. Freud suggested that our mental states are influenced by two competing forces: cathexis and anti-cathexis.

Cathexis has been described as an investment of mental energy in a person, an idea or an object. If you are hungry, for example, you can create a mental image of a delicious meal that you want. In other cases, the ego may use some energy from the id to seek activities that are related to the activity in order to disperse some of the excess energy from the id. If you can't really look for food to appease your hunger, you can instead flip through a cookbook or browse through a recipe blog.

Anti-cathexis involves the ego blocking the id's socially unacceptable needs. Suppressing urges and desires is a common form of anti-cathexis, but it involves a significant investment of energy.

Were Aristotle’s predictions of heavenly motion quantitative or qualitative?
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

It is qualitative

Explanation:

Quantitative prediction could be measured by numbers (countable) while qualitative prediction is the other way around. The prediction of heavenly motion by Aristotle proposed the idea that Earth is the center of universe while other planets and suns move in a spherical motion around it. His prediction was not backed by any proof or measurable data, it can only be considered as qualitative.
