A gesture is a form of nonverbal means of communication, which usually involve the movement of the hands, fingers, eyes, head, face etc.

However, in this context, the type of gesture used is the "EMBLEM GESTURE." Emblems are nonverbal signs that can commonly be interpreted directly into words. Most people within a particular community or nation understands their meaning easily. A good example is a circle with the thumb and forefinger to communicate or to say that everything is okay, although in America this is a common gesture, however, in another culture, this could mean zero or something different entirely.

The answer is: Emblem

Emblem is a type of non-verbal communication through gestures that can be used to replace actual words. The interpretation of an Emblem would be varied depending on where it used.

For example, in United States Judy's hand gesture would be interpreted as an 'okay' sign. In Japan on the other hand, that exact gesture would be interpreted as 'money'.

Answer: D) "Since horses were not introduced to the Americas until Columbus, the Aztecs and Incas did not use horses or advanced weapons, while the Afro-Eurasians had highly developed cavalries and weaponry."

The answer is not A because Afro-Eurasia was composed of giant empires and governments, not small ones. The answer is not B because slavery was acceptable in the Incan and Aztec empires <u>as well as</u> in the Afro-Eurasia. Finally, it can't be C because in Afro-Eurasian governments, <u>only a few</u> were centered on religious beliefs, not all.

What are a few of the positive things the Equal Rights Amendment would have done for women in America?
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

Employment, property and family law.

Explanation:

The ERA has to be considered in its historical context. It was first proposed in 1923, at a time where women had little or no rights regarding work and payment and faced discrimination. The ERA proposed a total abolition of law discrimination based on sex, which would have been revolutionary at the time. Later, during the 1960s and 1970s when the ERA was again discussed, some of the problems were solved with other laws, like the Equal Pay Act or the Civil Rights Acts. However, while these acts are a key part of American Legislation, the ERA is a Constitutional Amendment, which would give a completely new level of protection.  

There is criticism, mainly because many of the laws and guarantees gained during the past 100 years have been tailored to protect women in their specificity. And many fear that the ERA would negatively override those protections. However, as an Amendment, any discrimination based on sex could be challenged based on unconstitutionality. And as of now, women still suffer discrimination and the acts and laws enacted so far are not sufficient.
