Answer:

D. The lack of political stability makes it more difficult for being to receive aid.

Explanation:

Using the except, the statement that best explains why the famine in Somalia had a high mortality rate is the lack of political stability can make it more difficult for people to receive help. Droughts lead to famines but the effects become more devastating in politically unstable countries. It's hard to distribute resources and many times rival groups will try to keep aid and resources for themselves.

Answer:

Based on the excerpt by the BBC, some of the causes of the deadly famine in Somalia include:

The famine in Somalia has a high rate of mortality based on the BBC excerpt because there was:

Drought.

Conflict within the country

The power tussle between Islamic rival groups especially the Al-Shabaab.

Political instability which prevents aids from donor agencies

Explanation:

This famine period that hit Somalia was between 2010-2013  and this lead to about the death of almost 260,000 people both adult and children during this period. During this period, the Islamic ground who were in control prevents foreign donors from bringing in food items by claiming the country is not facing any form of famine thereby resulting in a lot of death.

However, the rising prices in international food prices also contribute to the famine in Somalia.

Answer: Situation specificity

Explanation:

As a person grows, he often understands the behaviors and forms of expression that he must adopt. It is understood that there are ways to behave according to the situation in which the person can be present.

It can be called situation specificity the way a person acts and express itself according to the context in which the person can meet. It is easy for adults the codes established at the time of expressing and behaving according to the place. For children, this is more difficult since their little reason does not allow them to identify at what time they should not cry or play. This is normal since they have not yet reached the stage of maturation that allows them to differentiate at what time they should do something or not, and also that their poor vocabulary makes them express their needs in another way.

In the case of Ari, it can be seen that he behaved as expected according to the context. When he was at the Dean’s office, Ari remained calm and polite. I knew the Dean’s office was not a place to be talking loudly or shouting. Then when he went to a soccer game, Ari started screaming and jumping, something that is expected when a person goes to watch a game of any sport. It is normal to shout, clap, jump and celebrate when you are watching a sport.

Not all people will be able to act and express in certain ways depending on the context and this would not necessarily be because they do not know the ways of behaving. Some mental or physical illnesses can influence a person's behavior, causing them to behave in a way that they do not expect.

Why did Portugal begin to explore the coasts of South America and Africa in the 1400s?
slega [8]
Portugal began to explore and many other after them, because of three principles God, Glory, and Gold. God for their faith to spread in the never ending war against Catholics and Protestants. Glory for prestige for being better than your neighbors. Gold for greed and paying the upkeep of your rather large nation and possibly empire. 
The First World Empire was England. Its insurmountable navy was one of the reasons it was possible. Its military also strong. Rich undoubtedly.
