Answer:

the colonies were too large and far away.

Explanation:

The common sense a pamphlet written by Thomas Paine which created to convinced people to support the independence movement from the British Empire.

In the common sense, Paine argued that the size of American territory and the distance between America and Britain make it impossible for Britain to rule America in the efficient manner. (at that time, modern means of communication such as telephone hasn't been invented)

Because of this, Paine argued that the people of colony should take control of their own territory and managed the politic and economic aspect in the colonies by their own.

Give a summary of at least 5 significant characteristics of YOUR adolescent development you have experienced on the following:
andriy [413]

I am a teenager currently, here is my verse.

The teenager is a uniquely human phenomenon.

Adolescents are known to be moody, insecure, argumentative, angst-ridden, impulsive, impressionable, reckless and rebellious. Teenagers are also characterised by odd sleeping patterns, awkward growth spurts, bullying, acne and slobbish behaviour. So what could be the possible benefit of the teenage phase?

Most other animals - apes and human ancestors included - skip that stage altogether, developing rapidly from infancy to full adulthood. Humans, in contrast, have a very puzzling four-year gap between sexual maturity and prime reproductive age. Anthropologists disagree on when the teenage phase first evolved, but pinpointing that date could help define its purpose.

There are a variety of current explanations for the existence of teenagers. Some believe that we need longer for our large brains to develop. Other explanations suggest that a teenage phase allows kids to learn about complex social behaviour and other difficult skills, or that it is even required to develop coordinated bipedal bodies adapted to travelling long distances.

Raging hormones

Scientists once thought that the brain's internal structure was fixed at the end of childhood, and teenage behaviour was blamed on raging hormones and a lack of experience. Then researchers discovered that the brain undergoes significant changes during adolescence.

According to many recent studies, teen brains really are unique (see interactive graphic). Though many brain areas mature during childhood, others mature later - such as the frontal and parietal lobes, responsible for planning and self-control.

Other studies have shown that teens fail to see the consequences of their actions, and that sudden increases in nerve connectivity in teen brains may make it difficult for teenagers to read social situations and other people's emotions.

Risky behaviour

One study in 2004 showed that teens have less brain activity in areas responsible for motivation and risk assessment, perhaps explaining why they are more likely to take part in risky activities such as abusing drugs and alcohol, develop a hard-to-kick smoking habit or indulge in under-age sex.

Teenage pregnancies and rising rates of sexually transmitted diseases among teens are big problems - especially because today's teen generation is the biggest the world has seen: a 2003 UN report revealed that 1 in 5 people were between 10 and 19, a total of 1.2 billion people.

But not everyone agrees on the best way to tackle the problem. Some believe that comprehensive sex education is the key, while others argue for abstinence only education courses.

NNADVOKAT [17]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

You forgot to include the options for this question. However, we can answer the following.

Nozick’s Wilt Chamberlain example (updated by Professor Sandel to the Michael Jordan example) is supposed to illustrate that "liberty upsets patterns and, therefore, the entitlement conception of justice requires illegitimate restrictions of liberty. This applies to justice in holdings and justice in transfer.

American professor Robert Nozick, known for its interesting work at Harvard University, was a justice researcher and theorist who studied libertarian rights and the role of justice in modern society.  

In 1974, he wrote the influential book called "Anarchy, State and Utopia," in which he defended the existence of a non-interventional state that granted liberties to citizens with minimal or none interference in the lives of people.
