8 0

Answer:

Explanation:

1. There are few theories on why the books of Maccabees are not part of Jewish scriptures.

The first one is the date; it is believed that the Council of Jamnia only took books that existed for a long time and were unofficially considered canonical when canonizing Hebrew Bible. The events in the old testament go from the Creation to the book of Esther, happening during the rebuilding of the Temple. For them, The Maccabean Revolt was the recent event, happening after these mentioned ones.

The more probable reason, however, lies in the separation of Judaism on two fractures – <em>the Pharisees</em> and<em> theSadducees</em>. While Pharisees lean towards ideas of oral law and tradition, Sadducees reject them and follow the written Torah as the only canon. The Maccabees are believed to be descendant from Pharisees, and quite possibly excluded from canonization by a council of Jamnia because of this reason.

However, the books of Maccabees are still valuable historical account, the one because of which Hanukah is celebrated.

2. Because of the evidence presented above, the answer is - Yes, it is true that the first and second Maccabee books were written as part the Jewish history.

Would it be possible to establish a community like utopia? why or why not?
cricket20 [7]
I honestly don't think establishing a Utopian community is possible.This is mainly because humans are too flawed and wouldn't be able to live in such a society. Utopia would means that everybody thinks the same and is satisfied with the life they're leading, which is not possible, in my opinion. There will always be someone greedy for power, who will ultimately lead to the downfall of Utopia. It would require people to be perfect, which is never going to become possible.

2. Choose one of the following and describe how the type of asexual
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

Selected option: binary fission

Explanation:

Bacteria reproduce asexually, usually by binary fission, also known as bipartition. This process consists of a stem cell giving rise to two genetically identical cells, but smaller in size. First the circular bacterial DNA is duplicated with the help of DNA polymerase, and then a transverse wall is formed by internal growth of the plasma membrane and the cell wall. Some species of bacteria, after dividing, hold daughter cells together through membranes. This characteristic allows the formation of bacterial colonies, which greatly facilitate their identification, since each species that forms these groups does so in a special way: in a single one-dimensional row, in two dimensions, in clusters, etc. Binary fission happens very fast. Ideally, some bacteria divide at 20 minute intervals. At that rate, if there is no interference, a bacterium would give rise to more than a billion bacteria in 10 hours. However, bacteria cannot reproduce at this speed for long, because soon the lack of food or the accumulation of waste products would prevent it.
