Answer and Explanation:
You should ask these questions before making a judgment about the findings that raising livestock is harmful to the environment and that the sale of meat should be banned:
<em>1. How many studies have shown the same results?</em>
This is an important question to ask since results from one researcher or (group of researcher) need to be tested for reliability and validity before it is accepted as scientific truth or fact. This is why you should check if other studies also show the same result about the harmful effects of raising livestock on the environment.
<em>2. Does the group conducting the study have anything to gain by interpreting their findings in this way?</em>
Unfortunately, at times, certain researchers or groups of researchers fabricate or exaggerate their research findings for their own gains or to further their agendas. In this instance, since the group conducting the research is the <em>Ethical Treatment for Animals</em> it is possible that the group interpreted and published the research findings to fit their own paradigm- that eating meat is unethical and should be stopped- when in fact such a claim needs further testing.
<em>3. Does the environmental damage matter as much as people's freedom to eat what they choose?</em>
This is a valid question to consider as it involves the matter of free will. Banning the sale of meat would take away the free will of individuals who would like to continue consuming meat despite evidence suggesting that it is harmful for the environment. Thus, it is important the consider whether environmental damage matters as much as people's freedom to eat what they choose when making a judgement about these research findings.

Correct answer: C. The congress system if set up became a model for the United Nations.
Explanation:
My authority source for choosing answer C is the United Nations itself. <em>UN Chronicle, </em>the magazine of the United Nations, featured an article titled, "From the Congress of Vienna to Present-Day International Organizations" (December, 2014). That article asserts points such as these:
- <em>When did the process of international organization start?1 It was not in 1945 nor in 1919. Rather, it was the Congress of Vienna (1814-15) that proved to be the relevant turning point in history, when certain conditions allowed a number of European States to set in motion a series of innovations, inventions and learning processes that shaped the core of what we today refer to as international organizations (IOs).</em>
- <em>The major innovation at Vienna was the follow-up conference. This new idea resulted in the custom of participating States to convene, upon reaching an agreement, a follow-up conference to assess whether previously agreed-upon decisions and policies had been executed. ... Consequently, since 1815, that innovative idea resulted in an ongoing cycle of conferences dealing with similar and related issues. Apart from continuity, the cycle produced incremental decision-making and path dependency with regard to selected common solutions and efforts.</em>
The correct answer is B. Increase in the incidence of anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa.
Explanation:
Both anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa are eating disorders that involve unhealthy habits such as restricting food intake or inducing oneself to vomit after eating. These habits aim at making the individual thin, although in most cases individuals suffering from these disorders are underweight and unhealthy even to the point their lives are at risk.
Besides this, the incidence of these eating disorders has increased over time; indeed, in westernized countries anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa increase in incidence since 1960. This is explained because one of the factors that contribute to the development of both disorders is cultural ideas about thinness, and since 1960 the idea of being thin has increased in importance which is supported in media by mainly including actors or models that are unrealistically thin. Also, since the 1960s there has been an emphasis on body image, healthy weight, and diets.
