Answer:

overcome functional fixedness

Explanation:

Monique routinely uses a shredder to shred her junk-mail into confetti-sized pieces of paper, which she then just throws away. When packing her glassware to move into a new apartment, she runs out of protective styrofoam packing material. Suddenly Monique gets the idea to empty her shredder and use the shredded junk mail confetti for packing material. In this case, Monique has <u>overcome functional fixedness</u>. Functional fixedness is a cognitive bias that makes people limit the use of a thing or object to the traditional  use for which it was made.

Monique was fixed on using the shredder for the traditional purpose for which it was made and throwing away the junk mails, which is for shredding junk mails. However, her decision to deviate from the traditional usage of the shredder and instead using the shredded papers for packing shows that she has overcome functional fixedness with regards to the use of a shredder.

List in point how Nepal to foreign relation have been improving and expanding​
katovenus [111]

Answer:

Though the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) is the government agency responsible for the conduct of foreign relations of Nepal, historically, it is the Office of Prime Minister (PMO) that has exercised the authority to formulate and conduct policies related to Nepal's foreign affairs. As a landlocked country wedged between two larger and far stronger powers, Nepal has tried to maintain good relations with both of its neighbors, People's Republic of China and Republic of India.[1] However, its relationship with India, the country with greater hegemonic power over Nepal, has seen major ups and downs in recent years. The relationship between the two countries was significantly hampered during the 2015 Nepal blockade. Where the Nepal Government accused India of the blockade, India strictly denied the allegation and said the blockade were imposed by Madheshi protesters.[2] For the most part though, Nepal has traditionally maintained a non-aligned policy and enjoys friendly relations with its neighboring countries and almost all the major countries of the world.

Constitutionally, foreign policy is to be guided by “the principles of the United Nations Charter, nonalignment, Panchsheel (five principles of peaceful coexistence), international law and the value of world peace.” In practice, foreign policy has not been directed toward projecting influence internationally but toward preserving autonomy and addressing domestic economic and security issues.

Nepal's most substantive international relations are perhaps with international economic institutions, such as the Asian Development Bank, the International Monetary Fund, the World Bank, and the South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation, a multilateral economic development association. Nepal also has strong bilateral relations with major providers of economic and military aid, such as France, Germany, Japan, Malaysia, South Korea, Switzerland, the United States, and particularly the United Kingdom, with whom military ties date to the nineteenth century. The country's external relations, barring relations with India and China, are primarily managed by its Ministry of Foreign Affairs while relationship with India and China, Nepal's most important partners, is still managed by the Prime Minister's Office. Nepal's relation with China has seen a major upswing in the recent years with China now becoming Nepal's 3rd largest aid donor (after the UK and Japan), and the largest source of FDI to Nepal. sorry my ans is too long

Explanation:

The <u>planets </u>are bodies of rock or gas that are named for ancient gods.

<u>Planets are astronomical bodies. They can be found orbiting stars with gravity.</u> The Earth that we live on is a planet. It is also part of the<u> Solar System which consists of eight planets. All these planets, besides Earth, have the names of ancient Roman and Greek gods and goddesses. </u>

<u>Meteoroids </u>are made of rock or metal, which often collide with Earth.

<u>Meteoroids are space bodies made from various materials. </u>They are smaller than asteroids, usually going up to one meter.<u> They often collide with the Earth but do not cause damage as the atmosphere shreds them until they are no longer dangerous. </u>When people see meteoroids with the naked eye, they call them shootings tars.

<u>These types of planets are composed of rock and metals, which means they have solid surfaces. They are, therefore, similar to the Earth. </u>In our Solar system, terrestrial planets are Venus, Mercury, and Mars.

The Juno probe is exploring the planet <u>Jupiter</u>

<u>Juno is NASA’s spacecraft sent into space in 2011. to explore Jupiter. </u>It should measure its gravity and magnetic fields, and to offer us knowledge of how Jupiter builds, what does it look like, what is in its the core, temperature, etc. Name Juno comes from Roman mythology; goddesses Juno was the wife of the chief god Jupiter.
