This statement is true.

<em>A contingency fee </em>is a method of paying someone ( for example a lawyer or a scientist ,) in which no money is paid until a particular aim is achieved. In other words, the lawyer will only get paid if he wins the case.

Mark is a forensic scientist. To agree to be compensated for his work through contingency fees presents him<em> with a potential conflict of interest and work ethics.</em> This should be avoided in his profession and it is marked as a guiding principle to be obeyed.

Mark would have a financial incentive to provide a forensic opinion that is favorable to his client ( only then he would be paid for his work). This is seen as a<em> threat to impartiality,</em> the forensic may use the evidence in a way that favors the positive outcome of the case. This is strictly prohibited as all medical ( forensic ) opinions should<em> be based on facts only </em>and not to be influenced by any kind of reward or personal gain obtained through them.

Answer:

3. He should encourage audience participation by asking questions or requesting examples.

Explanation:

When an audience is not engaged in a speech it means that they are not interested in the contents of the speech or rather the way contents have been presented.

The purpose of a speech is to impart knowledge to a large group of people if the audience is not interested in the speech then the main function of a speech is not fulfilled. The speaker should not ignore the speech or provide additional data but instead, encourage the audience to participate. This would involve the audience in the speech.

Hence the answer is 3. He should encourage audience participation by asking questions or requesting examples.

Sonbull [250]

This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is as follows:

Twelve-year-old Nathaniel was having trouble solving the word problems in his math homework. His dad began reading the problems aloud and emphasizing the important information. As Nathaniel started catching on, his dad gradually provided less help for each new problem. This interaction illustrates:

A) Piaget's concept of concrete operational thought.

B) Erikson's concept of industry versus inferiority.

C) Vygotsky's concept of scaffolding.

D) Piaget's concept of conservation.  

Answer:

The correct answer is letter C) Vygotsky's concept of scaffolding.

Explanation:

According to Vygotsky's Zone of Proximal Development, scaffolding is the process in which a supporter helps a learner, but only to a certain extent. As the learner grows more knowledgeable, the supporter gradually withdraws his help, allowing the learner to do things on his own. Eventually, the learner becomes responsible for the outcome of his tasks. That is what Nathaniel's father is doing while helping him with his math homework. He assists Nathaniel, but slowly steps away allowing his son to solve problems on his own as he gains more knowledge.
