The Mayans prayed,sacrificed,and fasted
The Mayan and other Mesoamerican cultures used a vigesimal number system based on base 20, (and, to some extent, base 5), probably originally developed from counting on fingers and toes.
valence electrons are electrons found in the outer shell of an atom. these are electrons that participate in CHEMICAL BONDING. an atom will either give up its valence electrons, gain valence electrons from another atom, or share valence electrons with another atom.
these are the only types of electrons that participate in chemical bonding - since they live in the outer most shell of an electron. no other electrons in an atom can bond. that's why these electrons have their own name.
an atom will do whatever it can to reach its full octet of valence electrons. that that means is that an atom is most stable when it has 8 electrons in its outer shell (it's the most stable and strong that way); hence the name OCTET.
i hope this helps!
Different kinds of maps are created for different purposes. To navigate from one place to another, one would prefer a physical (geographic) map, but to locate a country, one would need a political map and a world map is for the world. . Further refinements include road maps, topographic maps, nautical and aeronautical charts, each of which represent more physical details.. Thematic maps can be used to display distribution of various measurements, such as people, oil, cellphone coverage, etc.
Mccarthy's accusations against the state department were reflective of earlier developments through his accusations that triggered a series of events that defined the Division of Security’s course for the next decade.
First, there was an establishment of a Congressional committee which called several former and current Department of State officers and advisers to testify and answer charges about their loyalty to redouble its efforts on background investigations of its employees. Second, one Department official’s was reluctant to admission which accidentally triggered a purge of gays at the Department. Thirdly, there was an establishment of the Congressional subcommittee that studied physical security at United States posts overseas, where its report led to increased resources allocation for overseas security.
Mccarthy's had announced that he possessed a list of 205 members of the Communist Party who were “working and shaping policy” in the Department of State.
