Correct answer:  A. People have natural rights and government is based on a contract.

Explanation/details:

English philosopher John Locke believed that all human beings have certain natural rights which are to be protected and preserved.    Locke's ideal was one that promoted individual freedom and equal rights and opportunity for all.  Each individual's well-being (life, health, liberty, possessions) should be served by the way government and society are arranged.

Thus, In his political theory, Locke argued the idea of a "social contract."  According to his view, a government's power to govern comes from the consent of the people themselves -- those who are to be governed.  This was a change from the previous ideas of "divine right monarchy" -- that a king ruled because God appointed him to be the ruler.  Locke repudiated the views of divine right monarchy in his <em>First Treatise on Civil Government.</em>  In his <em>Second Treatise on Civil Government</em>, Locke argued for the rights of the people to create their own governments according to their own desires and for the sake of protecting their own life, liberty, and property.  This includes the right to replace an unjust government with one that properly serves the people's rights.

What are so benefits and pitfalls of the ethnic , language, and religious diversity in africa
mart [117]

Among benefits of the ethnic, language and religious diversity in Africa one may single out the ability to learn from the different ethnic groups and build interconnections between them, thus establishing a successful, well-functioning multicultural society.

Speaking about pitfalls, when one deals with such a great cultural diversity, there is always a possibility of disagreement on the cultural ground, which may in the worst case even lead to murder, for instance, when there is a collision of religious viewpoints.

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

The only  two disadvantages I know is that the photographs when taking them were incredibly sensitive to movement and so they had to sit still for a long time and had to keep their eyes shut. The other disadvantage was that the person taking the photo could have contracted mercury poisoning.
