The correct answer is: C) Great Britain's navy captured American sailors before the war began.
Because of the conflict between Great Britain and Napoleon Bonaparte's France, both countries tried to block the United States from trading with the other, which damaged and angered Americans deeply. Later on, to make things much worse, the Royal Navy of Great Britain took American sailors into the marine forces without notice to fight on its behalf. Both of these causes ultimately led to President James Madison's Declaration of War upon the British.

In psychology, Cognitive Dissonances refer to the distress that one person feels when he/she holds two or more contradictory ideas or when the person experiences evidences that contradict his/her own beliefs. What the person tries to do is to f<u>ind a way to reduce the contradiction</u> to reduce the dissonance (stress) this situation generates them.
When examining the options given, we can tell that<u> e) When experienced reality contradicts basic religious beliefs</u> is one of the definitions of generators of cognitive dissonances since reality (experience) contradicts religious (personal) own beliefs.
Note:
a) is not an example of cognitive dissonance because there's nothing in reality that contradicts the belief. The person can actually think that he's not good enough for God to answer his/her prayers.
b) Is not an example since the fact that different people worship different deities does not necessarily questions our own beliefs.
c) Religions evolve and accept new ideas. This could create cognitive Dissonance in some people (since technically, God's word is eternal) but it's not necessarily a cause of cognitive dissonance.
d) Religious drop certain practices. Similar as c)
Answer:
Option D is correct.
Explanation:
To measure and compare the muscular endurance of two persons with completely different physical features, the best method is the Fixed percentage method.
With this method, first, you determine the 1 RM (one repetition max) or the maximum weight this person can lift in a full repetition. Then you use 70% of that weight to calculate the muscular endurance.
If someone's RM is 200 lb, then you will use 140 lb (70% of 1 RM) to conduct the test.
This method takes into account the person's specific capabilities, as the 70% of a 140 lb person will be completely different from the one of a 210 lb person.
