Answer:

Shinto
Worship of ancestors
Buddhism

Explanation:

Most of the people in Japanse practice the religion of Shintoism, alongside Buddhism. These two are considered a native Japanese religion, although there is also a Christian minority in Japan. Shintoism and Buddhism do not exclude one another but are often practiced together simultaneously. The two practices are today considered to be part of the culture of Japan as much as part of the religious beliefs.

Shinto practices include ancestor worshiping which is similar to Chinese practices. Worshiping ancestors and spirits is performed at domestic as well as public shrines.

The spirits are called kami, and they come from people after they die, as well as in the forms of important life things, like trees, rivers, mountains, etc.

Prompt: Should leaders be more responsible than the average citizen? Justify your reasoning.

SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

There are many characteristics required to be a good leader, responsibility being one of this. This is because, unlike the average citizen, leaders make decisions that have an influence on a large group of people. They need to think of how their actions affect others and how those actions might be perceived. They also need to have skills such as good time management and communication to be a good leader.

They should also lead by example, since their actions and attitudes have an effect on the population which they are governing. Leaders are looked upon as an inspiration and as being able to lead through difficult times. If they are irresponsible, they might not achieve the necessary objectives and might have a negative effect on the rest of the population.

president wilson created _____ to regulate prices , manufacturing, and transport of materials for the war

Paul [167]

Answer:

Clayton Antitrust Act and Federal Trade Commission

Explanation:

In 1914, President Woodrow Wilson established the Clayton Antitrust Act and the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), which together are parts of the Antitrust Laws, that helped monitor economic processes from manufacturing, transport, distribution, sales, marketing and all levels of business in general.

They helped the US economy to stay safe and fair, first during wartime, but also ever since the establishment. These laws affect everyone, customers, distributors, and manufacturers, and are beneficial for all.

With these laws, the economy can grow and all sectors are remaining fair.

Clayton Antitrust Act was established to cover the loopholes that stayed from the Sherman Antitrust Act and protect the economy. Sherman Antitrust Act prohibited monopoly, but Clayton Antitrust Act prohibited conduct, the three-level enforcement scheme and discriminatory shipping and distribution agreements.

Federal Trade Commission was established in order to regulate, monopolisation and fraudulent in production and trade. This Commission set prices and protected customers as well as businesses from bad trading and malfunctioning.
