Answer: B. ICS provides a structure for organizing field-level operations for a broad spectrum of incidents.
Explanation:
The ICS which is short for the Incident Command System refers to command and control structures that are widely used by government, NGOs and even organisations in the Private sector.
By structuring incident responses into 5 areas namely; Command, Operations, Planning, Logistics, and Finance/Administration, the ICS provides a framework to organize operations for a broad spectrum of events in the field.
Answer: True
Explanation:
Inflation rate actual measures an increase in the consumer price index (CPI) which is based on average prices of various goods.
The goods which are considered under inflation are based on whether they fall under the prevalent consumption basket in that country.
The index therefore has various goods based on what goods that country consumes the most some goods are responsible for price increase whilst some for price decrease depending on how heavy does each good weigh on the overall consumption basket of that country.
A price index refers to an average price of particular good or services in a particular region at a certain period.
The answer is arrangements taken by the British government in the Intolerable Acts.

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:
"Technological improvements and reduced equipment costs have made converting solar energy directly into electricity far more cost-efficient in the last decade. However, the threshold of economic viability for solar power (that is, the price per barrel to which oil would have to rise in order for new solar power plants to be more economical than new oil-fired power plants) is unchanged at thirty-five dollars. Which of the following, if true, does most to help explain why the increased cost-efficiency of solar power has not decreased its threshold of economic viability?
(A) The cost of oil has fallen dramatically. (B) The reduction in the cost of solar-power equipment has occurred despite increased raw material costs for that equipment. (C) Technological changes have increased the efficiency of oil-fired power plants. (D) Most electricity is generated by coal-fired or nuclear, rather than oil-fired, power plants. (E) When the price of oil increases, reserves of oil not previously worth exploiting become economically viable."
Answer:
(C) Technological changes have increased the efficiency of oil-fired power plants.
Explanation:
Economic viability is able to reveal the degree of acceptance of consumers in relation to a specific product. This viability is important to understand how the product will be received in the market and how profitable or not it can be for those who produce it.
Economic viability is usually greater when the cost and benefit ratio of the product or service is favorable, however this is not always the case.
Regarding the use of solar energy, although technological changes have made the installation and equipment of this type of energy more cost-effective, these technological changes have also increased the efficiency of oil plants. As a result, the economic viability of solar energy has declined.
