Answer:

Your guess about why a person would join a cult is an example of a hypothesis.

Explanation:

A hypothesis is an assumption which needs to be tested in order to determine if it is true or not. It is the <em>basis for a theory</em> since once it is experimented, more assumptions and new information will come into account.

In this case, you have information about what a cult is and you develop a hypothesis about why people tend to join them.

What would happen if you got pulled over with a permit?
telo118 [61]
Not sure what this has to do with social studies, but as long as you had an adult over the age of 21 with a  license in the car it would proceed like normal. If you didn't, which is illegal, you'd probably end up going to the police station, would no longer have a permit, and might not be able to get a license until you're 18-21. Don't do it please.

Finger [1]

Answer:

This suggestion best illustrates D. an evolutionary perspective.

Explanation:

The evolutionary perspective seeks explanations for behaviors taking into consideration our species need to adapt and reproduce. From this perspective, our behaviors result from problems our ancestors encountered over 10,000 years ago. Since the purpose of the species is to perpetuate itself, many of our behaviors could be explained by the instinct of reproduction. We look for good mates in order to procreate. That perspective would, therefore, explain men who marry younger women as a result of our reproductive needs - young means fertile, at least instinctively.

e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

Language

Explanation:

A language is a system that is a combination of arbitrary symbols that can produce an infinite number of meaningful statements. Language defined by the Britannica Encyclopedia is “a system of conventional spoken or written symbols that has meaning to the participants of a specific culture”. As stated before, we use different symbols to create a word that means something to us. Each symbol has each own pronunciation as well as each word. The most interesting part is that each language is very different from each other. There are other symbols and other meanings to words. In conclusion, we can state that with language we have an infinite form of communication; we just need to learn the rules of each language.
