Answer: The given statement is false.

Explanation:

Women are more prone to abuse as compared to men. This is because we are living in a stereotype society where till now women are considered weak, silent, and easy to harass.

Therefore, due to this women are abused emotionally, mentally and physically. Whereas men still feel that they have the right to do anything and they are powerful than women both physically and emotionally.

As still now head of the family is a male older adult to whom rest of the family members agree.

Hence, we can conclude that the statement male older adults are abused at a higher rate than are women, is false.

1. How are populations of chimpanzees affected by slash and burn agriculture? 2. Which features of chimpanzees make them more di
sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

1. Slash and Burn agriculture refers to a technique of farming that requires plants in a forest or woodland to be decimated to create a cultivable expanse of land.

Some of these plants are usually homes to wild chimpanzees. The more they are cut down, the deeper into the forests they would migrate, that's if they ever find a place like it.  

2. When compared to the other primates such as monkeys, baboons, etc their larger body size, puts them at a disadvantage. This is because when they are placed in a restricted space, they need more food which in turn translates to increased height and weight.

Cheers!
