In Kant’s time, peasants would sometimes sell their teeth to wealthier individuals who needed them. Kant objected to this, and h

e would presumably, for similar reasons, object to selling organs (like kidneys) in the present day. Which of following most accurately characterizes Kant’s reasons for objecting to selling parts of one’s body? a) The pain caused by having a tooth or an organ extracted is severe — severe enough to outweigh the pleasure that the recipient will enjoy. b) Extracting teeth and organs is digusting, and, therefore, morally wrong. c) Extracting teeth and organs inherently involves a certain amount of risk. Something could go wrong, and the procedure could result in infection, further illness, or death. Kant says that we are not allowed to take risks with our lives. d) By selling part of her body, a person would be treating herself as a mere means, and not as an end in herself. e) An individual’s body is owned by God, and so she is not free to do with it whatever she wishes. God has ultimate ownership over her body, and so selling a tooth or an organ would require selling something that one does not actually own.

Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

 

Our cherished Bill of Rights, which turned 225 years old this month, is one of the great oddities of American constitutional history. What began as a mere afterthought to the Constitution ended up saving the Constitution from its Anti-Federalist critics, and today looms larger in the American mind than the Constitution itself.

Answer:

D. National Incident-Based Reporting System.

Explanation:

The Uniform Crime Report (UCR) is a program of the federal government of the United States of America that was launched in 1929.

The main purpose of the UCR is to gather and compile informations on crimes that were committed and reported to the law enforcement agencies in the United States of America.

Generally, the federal bureau of intelligence (FBI) are saddled with the responsibility of publishing these crime statistics reports in the United States of America.

This ultimately implies that, the Uniform Crime Reports (UCR) measures the most serious crimes in the United States of America, also referred to as Part I crimes.

The new redesigned Uniform Crime Reports (UCR) is called the National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS). It took a five (5) year redesign effort to transform the Uniform Crime Reports (UCR) program into the more comprehensive and well-detailed National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS).

Justify the title of the poem?<br>the leader and the led<br>​
OLga [1]

Answer:

The title of the poem The Leader and the Led by Niyi Osundare speaks to the various dimensions of attitude within the ambit of Leadership.

It speaks to the indivisible union between leadership and followership.

In the first line, he opens up the poem by describing the attribute of the Leader as a lion who is unafraid to stake his claim. He contrasts that with the Antelope who is always fearful and reminded of the paws of the Lion.

It speaks therefore to the requirement of the Leader to be strong when he or she has to be. It also indicates that the leader cannot always be nice.

By an Ironic statement in line 9, he points out the reason why a duplicitous person cannot lead. He likens such a person to a Zebra. Duplicity equals the inability to inspire trust. Trust is an essential and critical quality for a leader. In line 10 he communicates that the followers are not as powerless as they have been painted to be in line 6 as fearful Impalas, for they also have the ability to finger the flaws of a leader to limelight and remove their following from he or she.

Lines 19 and 20 suffices in the description of a balanced leader as one who must be firm when it is required and gentle when the occasion calls for it.

The entire imagery painted by the poem is a fine depiction of leadership using metaphorical analogies of the animal kingdom.

For as in the animal kingdom, animals have leadership and following, so also do humans.
