Answer:

The doctrine of respondent superior

Explanation:

The doctrine of respondent superior is a legal doctrine that is adopted when there is an unjustified behaviour which leads to damages, injury or any other legal liability.

This principle holds an employer legally responsible for any wrong action by their employee especially if such actions were done while trying to carry out their work. For example if an employee gets someone injured in the course of their job operation, the employer will be held accountable for such although it was caused or done by their employee. This doctrine is also known as Master-Servant Rule.

Answer: THE DOCTRINE OF RESPONDEAT SUPERIOR.

The doctrine of respondeat superior is a legal doctrine used that makes an employer, manager, supervisor, or other individual superior to an employee responsible or may be legally liable for the acts of that employee.

This is basically saying that any wrong doing caused by an employee working under the jurisdiction of the employer makes the employer legally liable and responsible for the employee's wrong doings.

For example, if a delivery agent driving company vehicle, causes an accident, the person involved in the accident can choose to bring into lawsuit the company instead of the delivery agent

Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

The correct answer is true.

Explanation:

The correct answer is true, because American culture is a mixture of different cultures that affected it throughout different periods of time. That is why immigrants affected and shaped American culture. America is created by immigrants and that is why the culture of this country and the whole continent is shaped by them.

Of course, this means that answer false is not correct at all.

2The government created laws

It means that one government controls the whole population of people and the only way they can do that is to be voted in.  The best characteristics of a democraitc is that the rules for the country are directly elected by the people. which means it is the government for the people by the people.

4 a form of democracy in which people vote on policy initiatives directly. Representative democracy  is a type of democracy founded on the principle of elected officials representing a group of people, as opposed to direct democracy.

not sure if this helps but next time be sure to not have the questions not so close together. it was kinda confusing.
