Answer:
The OPEC member countries control a large percentage of the world's oil production which gives them a lot of power to affect world oil prices.
Explanation:
OPEC with a total number of 14 members at present produces about 40 percent of the world's crude oil. Therefore, OPEC actions do affect international oil prices because of the size of the market share the collective controls. However, there are also oil sources beyond the OPEC states. For example, Brent Crude refers to oil that is produced in the Brent oil fields and other sites in the North Sea. WTI is the benchmark crude for North America. WTI is better suited to the production of gasoline while Brent oil favors diesel fuel production. Because together OPEC holds three-quarters of the world's conventional oil reserves and has the world's lowest barrel production costs, it can influence world oil prices and supply by deciding to either produce more or less barrels. If OPEC lowers production the price of oil increases because Brent and WTI have to make up the difference, and their production prices are higher. However, OPEC's ability to affect prices is changing with Canada, China, Russia and the United States increasing their own output in recent years.
Self-criticism can be a constructive mechanism of self-improvement and self-reflection, but it also can be very destructive. In the age of social media, we constantly have access to other peoples lives and can not help but to compare. It is all good, until this analyzing becomes more agressive towards one self. For example, 'oh, they are vacationing at such a nice place' goes to 'I am so stupid, I can never earn so much money to afford such a vacation'. Not everyone have a highly developed self-esteem, then this self-criticism becomes hard to handle and can even turn into constant anxiety and even depression. One of the most prominent self-criticizing has to do with the self-image or appearance. People want to look good and also stand out. This balace is hard to achieve. Sometimes people go as far as immitating the 'idol' or the person they think looks perfect. By self-criticizing you are almost denying your personal traits, and wanting to look like someone else. It all comes down to self-acceptance and controling your self-criticizm. If you try to look at yourself more objectively, you will have healty self-criticism that will help you improve.
Answer: B. the Poll Worker
Explanation: not sure if that is correct but it would make the most sense
I think you mean here organ transportation.
An ideal organ transportation is within the same person - that way, that person's immunological system won't attack that person's new organ.
Such transplantations are actually happening at times, in the case of skin drafts - a person's skin can be transplanted into another part of their body.
Answer:
Split the Government into a Diarchy type situation
The Emperor leads Domestic Affairs, while the Shogun leads Military affairs within japan, create a parliament full of the daimyo so that internal politics becomes easier, and have the samurai act as Guards for important people in government.
This is just a brief idea, and the Shogun would likely just take back control, although I believe you can provide the checks and balances.
