Insect infestations in certain cotton-growing regions of the world have caused dramatic increases in the price of cotton on the

world market. Knowing that cotton plants mature quickly, many soybean growers in Ortovia plan to cease growing soybeans, the price of which has long been stable, and to begin raising cotton instead, thereby taking advantage of the high price of cotton to increase their income significantly at least over the next several years.Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the plan’s chances for success?
(A) The cost of raising soybeans has increased significantly over the past several years and is expected to continue to climb.
(B) Tests of a newly developed, inexpensive pesticide have shown it to be both environmentally safe and effective against the insects that have infested cotton crops.
(C) In the past several years, there has been no sharp increase in the demand for cotton and for goods made out of cotton.
(D) Few consumers would be willing to pay significantly higher prices for cotton goods than they are now paying.
(E) The species of insect that has infested cotton plants has never been known to attack soybean plants.

You have been given a piece of evidence indicating that plant and animal life is scarce in this environment. Identify this envir
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

I believe the evidence indicates the following environment:

This is a desert because there is little precipitation for plant and animal life to thrive.

Explanation:

According to the evidence, this environment is scarce in plant and animal life. Among the options given, the best ones would be tundra and desert. However, <u>the option concerning the tundra has a crucial mistake that makes it incorrect. </u>

<u>According to it, a tundra "is too hot for plant and animal to live in." However, a tundra is is an extremely cold biome consisting of snow-covered lands.</u> The tundra is, in other words, like a cold desert. <u>Both environments have little precipitation, which makes it harder for plant and animal life to thrive. </u>

<u>Since that option makes such a mistake, we can easily choose the one about the desert as the correct one: </u><u>This is a desert because there is little precipitation for plant and animal life to thrive.</u>

Assume that you are a first-time driver and you are responsible for finding, obtaining, and paying for your own auto insurance.
pentagon [3]

Answer:

1. Take driver’s education.

2. Take and pass the driving test (get my driver’s license).

3. Search for insurance (and be a smart insurance shopper!).

4. Buy auto insurance.

5. Receive valid insurance card from insurance company.

6. Oops! I got into a fender bender.

7. Exchange insurance information with the other driver.

8. File a claim with your insurance company.

9. Allow insurance company to view the damage.

10. Finalize claim with your insurance company

11. Pay deductible.

Explanation:

It's a good idea to have an insurance card before you get into an accident. In my experience, the last step in the process is to pay the deductible to the auto body shop at the point the repair is finished. Typically, they have already been in communication with the insurance company to obtain the rest of the payment.

__

In one accident I had, the "finalize claim" step was last, after the insurance company had sued the uninsured motorist for damages. There was an additional settlement after the step where I paid the deductible.

In accordance with Maslow's way of thinking, if Erin secured a good-paying job that paid her enough to live in a decent apartmen
pishuonlain [190]

Answer: The correct answer is: Focus on her next level of needs.

Explanation: According to Maslow's theory of the hierarchy of needs, human beings have their needs organized in a pyramid.

The needs that are at the bottom of the pyramid must be satisfied for the individual to start satisfying the needs that are higher up. The need for security is lower in the hierarchy than the social needs.

In this particular case<u>, Erin already satisfied her needs of security because she already secured a good-paying job, a decent apartment, and an economical car, she also feels safe in her home, therefore, she now can move on to attend the needs that follow up in the hierarchy, which are social needs.</u>
