<u>The statements that describe Global Positioning Systems (GPS) are as follows: </u>

  • Used to map routes to unfamiliar places  
  • A feature offered in new cars
  • Used to pinpoint your exact location on the earth

<u>Explanation: </u>

Global Positioning Systems are now an in built feature in cars which are heavily influenced by Internet of Things (IoT). Since it is widely used to map routes to unfamiliar places, it seems pretty obvious.

It can also tell our precise location on earth and can not only come up with a route accordingly but can also predict the time taken to attain the destination. All the major mapping software, such as Google Maps, run on GPS and that’s why we are able to come up with routes for unfamiliar places.

Recommend TWO practical activities that young people could initiate to raise awareness
ololo11 [35]

Answer and explanation:

Heart disease is the number one cause of death in the developed countries and, although it can be treated, it has no cure so it's very important to prevent the development of this life-threatening condition. Both the prevention and the treatment of heart disease include: <u>having a healthy diet, exercising, avoiding smoking, and controlling one's weight</u>.

There are many practical ways in which a group of young people could raise awareness about heart disease, like for example 1) giving a speech in a public space in which they talk about this condition and how to prevent it, or 2) learning CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation).

The first point is very important to raise awareness. Many people underestimate the damage they do to their bodies when overeating or smoking, for example, so a public speech given by charismatic and well-informed people could be very eye-opening to some. To cause an even bigger impact, the orators could mention cases of heart disease in their relatives or their acquaintances.

The second point can be vital to saving lives. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation is a skill that everyone should learn, because you never know when you might need it. If a group of young people at school would gather to learn and teach CPR, they would gain knowledge that could potentially save someone's life, and raise awareness as well about the importance of knowing this important technique.

What influenced the development of kabuki during the golden age of Japan?
umka21 [38]

I would say Buddhist teachings and Chinese culture. Other sources say foreign cultures but encyclopedia Britannica states it had a lot of influence from Buddhist teachings.
The Kabuki form dates from the early 17th century, when a female dancer named Okuni (who had been an attendant at the Grand Shrine of Izumo), achieved popularity with parodies of Buddhist prayers. She assembled around her a troupe of wandering female performers who danced and acted. Okuni’s Kabuki was the first dramatic entertainment of any importance that was designed for the tastes of the common people in Japan. The sensuous character of the dances (and the prostitution of the actors) proved to be too disruptive for the government, which in 1629 banned women from performing. Young boys dressed as women then performed the programs, but this type of Kabuki was suppressed in 1652, again because of concern for morals. Finally, older men took over the roles, and it is this form of all-male entertainment that has endured to the present day. Kabuki plays grew in sophistication, and the acting became more subtle.

Anton is mentally ill and lives in Gheel, Belgium during the 1400s. What kind of care does he receive?
guapka [62]

Answer:

The answer is- He lived in a foster home with a family that treats him kindly

Explanation:

During the renaissance in the 14th to 16th century, there was a rise in humanism and emphasis on human welfare. Instead of locking mentally ill patients away, a new school of doctors promoted the idea of asylums which were huge, sun-filled, well ventilated and asserted that things like rest and taking a human approach would improve the prognosis of individuals that were mentally ill.

This brought up a family care program, restraints were not used on the patients, the patients were placed in the care of a family and staff to proper monitor them. Patients were called boarders as it describes a social role in the community. This enabled them to be able to be provided the proper care, attention and love they deserved and to be accepted for who they were. In the 1400s, in Gheel, Belgium Anton who was mentally ill lived in a foster home with family that treats him kindly.
