History

Mariulka [41]3 years ago
3 0

The U.S gained control over the Island of Iwo Jima and Okinawa because it <u>wanted to get a clear position for bombing assaults on the Japanese home.</u> From this position, the Japanese had the advantage of a clear path that could intercept American boomers route to Tokyo. In addition to that, capturing Iwo Jima<u> provided the U.S with a point for emergency landing and refueling with an additional base from where fighters were escorted for the B-29 bombers.</u>

Why does an oasis occur?
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

An oasis can be formed by an underground aquifer or river that creates enough pressure for water to seep to the surface, forming the oasis. These aquifers and natural springs allow for life to exist in harsh climates like the desert and are often well known to local herders, farmers, and travelers in the region.

Why should all Americans have equal rights and opportunities?
lidiya [134]

People need to believe they have equal social and political rights, else there would be mass protests, revolutions and anarchy. Whether they actually exist in real life is irrelevant here, only the belief matters.

The primary difference in the social structures of humans and animals is the forced imposition of order in human society, leading to a more 'collective' society, instead of the usual 'survival of the fittest/law of the jungle' structure.  

And the concept of equal rights is necessary to achieve this imposition of order.

In my opinion, a human society following 'law of the jungle' would be unsustainable, simply because humans as a species are too weak to survive as individuals. The greatest strength of our species is our mental faculty. This leads to the sum of the parts being greater than the whole. As individuals though, we would fail to harness this strength.

Therefore, equal rights do offer us an evolutionary advantage, since they allow us to cluster together, and grow as a population, which is the only way for us to survive.
