Answer:

c. hippocampus      

Explanation:

The options for this question are missing. The options are:

a. amygdala

b. hypothalamus

c. hippocampus

d. cerebellum

In neurology, the part of our brain that is in charge of transforming short-term memories into long-term memories is the hippocampus. When a person has damage in the hippocampus, the person can experience a loss of the ability to make new memories (because the process of transforming short-term memories into long-term ones is affected) and they can also have loss of memory.  

In this example, Mateo had a stroke and now he is unable to remember the directions that enable him to get to and return from his new doctor's office. We can tell that<u> Mateo goes to the doctor usually and it's a fixed route, however he is experiencing a damage that is affecting the process of transforming short-term memories into long-term ones and thus, he keeps forgetting the route to his doctor's office.</u> Therefore, the brain structure that was potentially damaged (since it's the one in charge of this process) is the hippocampus.

B. promote racial equality. Saying that “the time for discrimination is over” implies an end to racial inequality is coming. This statement definitely doesn’t back up any of the other points. Saying discrimination is over can only mean one thing, the promotion of racial equality.

· setting the discount and interest rates · establishing reserve requirements for banks · buying and selling US government secur
dusya [7]

Answer:

B) regulate the money supply

Explanation:

Interest rates determine if investors will continue having their money in bank accounts OR if they will spend it for consumption, which means more production (more money supply).

If government establishes that banks need more reserves, this means that banks will have more money to lend, lent money also means more investment in production and more employment (more money supply).

Buying US government securities means that the government releases more money to the market (more money supply); on the contrary, selling US government securities means that government recovers money from the market (less money supply).

Read this prompt for an argumentative essay.
Tju [1.3M]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Title:

The Purpose of Government: to Serve the People.

United States President Abraham Lincoln said it two hundred years ago, and I agree with him.

The purpose of government is to serve the people and create the kinds of laws and legislation that establish internal peace, protect the citizens, and create the economic and political conditions for the people to prosper.

The presidency of Lincoln had its challenges during a tumultuous time where the country was divided through the issue of slavery and faced a civil war.  Despite the difficult conditions, Lincoln always had in mind the need for community and to integrate the Confederate states back into the Union. He thought that the rights of individuals were very important and that is why after the Civil War, he ordered a period of Reconstruction in the South that respected the rights of the African Americans.

Because of scarcity:Question 1 options:a) we face tradeoffs in nearly every choice we make.b) choices are unlimited.c) wants are
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

a) Because of Scarcity :- we face tradeoffs in nearly every choice we make

Explanation:

Scarcity is the shortage of supply with comparison to demand.

Scarcity : Demand > Supply

Scarcity leads to trade off for each choice made, as each choice made has opportunity cost i.e something sacrifised to attain that choice.

This happens because scarcity arises out of - unlimited wants & limited resources having alternative uses.

Eg: Resources = Money Income, spending options = Food, Drinks.

If one chooses to eat a unit food, its opportunity cost i.e drinking beverages is traded off for that unit food eaten.
