Answer:

For Native Americans one common misunderstanding is that they like to gamble. This conception comes from the fact that in many indian reservations in the US, casinos are allowed in order to create economic opportunities for the tribes, which are mostly poor. The fact that some tribes own casinos does not mean that they themselves like to gamble. They are simply providing a service.

For African Americans, a common stereotype is that they like to eat unhealthy foods, especially fried chicken (with the worst stereotype being that African Americans almost only eat KFC). This can be explained in two ways, first, it's true that most African Americans like fried foods because it is part of their cultural heritage, since deep fried foods, also known as soul food, are part of the cuisine of the southern United States. However, that does not mean that they do not like healthy foods. The problem lies in the poverty that affects black people. Unhealthy foods are cheaper than healthy food, and many poor black americans can only access those.

Another stereotype  that affects African Americans is that they are more prone to committing crimes. When applied without analyzing the socioeconomic conditions that affects the community, it is a dangerous stereotype that leads to racial profiling.

In four to six sentences, explain the savings-borowing investing cycle.
Natalija [7]

Answer:

To begin this cycle, first of all, we will save some money to start a business. When a certain limit has reached, we will borrow a little more money from people or from banks so that we have enough money for the business. Then we will invest our money on the business. Once the cycle is completed, we will move back to the first stage to start the cycle again. In this way, the cycle will continue.

Their habitat is largely the wooded mountain regions of the plateau. In the areas contingent to the Caspian Sea and the Persian Gulf there are marine fowl like gulls and geese.  The wood from the forests on the plateau is used in making household items like doors and furniture and a lot of fruit is grown in this region.

Answer:

Carter

Explanation:

They began on brainstorming with the group about the ways they could improve their current customers’ experiences. Carter left the room for 15 minutes to brainstorm alone while Sara brainstormed with about ten other coworkers.

Thus Carter is most likely to generate more ideas.
