History
1 answer:
suter [353]3 years ago
4 0

In government, the term authority is often used interchangeably with power. However, their meanings differ: while power is defined as "the ability to influence somebody to do something that he/she would not have done", authority refers to a claim of legitimacy, the justification and right to exercise that power.

How were the lives of blacks in south africa restricted by the apartheid laws?
soldier1979 [14.2K]
<span>Apartheid, the Afrikaans’ word for segregation, brought white supremacy to a whole new level as the rest of the continent was decolonizing following World War II. The National Party government treated non-whites as second class citizens and in the case of Africans, non-citizens. By confining Africans to the ‘homelands’ of Bantus tans, the National Party was able to justify stripping away any basic rights Africans had in the country of South Africa. The international community refused to recognize these homelands, and pressure eventually began to build from all sides to allow equal rights for all residents of South Africa. Pressure came in the form of economic sanctions, expulsions from international organizations, and the divestment of foreign companies.</span><span />

Alexus [3.1K]
Well we know that it is not A or C, Reason: Some states have up to 5m people in it. (For example about 8 live in just new York alone.)
And we also know its not 10 billion. Reason for this: Scientist have proven that there is no more then 8 billion people today.
And so now we got 6.5 billion is the closest, the real number is about 7.5 billion.
