Answer:

public compliance

Explanation:

Public compliance refers to a type of action that is heavily influenced by the pressure or coercion of social group that we belong to rather than our own will.

We can see this from the case above.

Dusty is an agnostic. He doesn't believe that the child's recovery is caused by the God.  When he was invited to the religious event, he felt a pressure  to conform to the neighbors' view and agree with them when they say 'prayer and intercession were responsible'.

Since he is an agnostic, we can conclude that Dusty said that because of social pressure rather than his own belief.

2. Don't chuck your trash at the tree. If you have trash, put it in a trashcan. If you see trash, put it in a trashcan.

3. If you're going to use profanity, do it quietly, please. It makes the rest of us uncomfortable.

4. When wearing earbuds or headphones, make sure that other peeps can't hear it.

5. SUPER SIMPLE but SOME brains can't get this: just be overall respectful to others. You don't know them or their situation, so leave them be.

6. Last one and it's small. Hold open doors for people right behind you. Don't pull a sneaky ninja right before the door closes and make the other person open the door.

Answer:

South Carolina Ordinance of Nullification, Nov 24, 1832.How was this ordinance a defense of state's rights?

<u>Federal taxes on imports cannot be imposed if the state considers the actions unconstitutional.</u>

What 1828 political party rejected the national bank and supported the presidential campaign of Andrew Jackson?

<u>Democratic Party.</u>

Explanation:

The United States imposed a series of tariffs in the early 19th century to protect and promote US industries over European ones. The most important of these was the Tariff of 1828. While these tariffs benefited the northern industrial states, the agrarian southern ones suffered the most as they imported most of their manufactured products. When president Andrew Jackson failed to significantly change the tariffs in 1832, South Carolina reacted by issuing the "Ordinance of Nullification" in November 24, 1832, declaring the tariffs null and void in the state. <u>They considered that any actions that were against the constitution, such as the federal taxes on imports, can be rendered void by states.</u> The federal government prepared to intervene by force in the state, but the revised Compromise Tariff of 1833 was considered good enough by South Carolina, ending the crisis.

The Democratic Party arose as a result of a split of the old Democratic-Republican Party, as the Democratic faction led by Andrew Jackson sought a party that was based on Jefferson's ideas and closer to the "common man". It opposed slavery and the establishment of a national bank .
