A is false. Despite the fact that Buddhism emerged from India and it was once a majority of the country during Emperor Asoka, Buddhism declined after the Islamic conquest and now it is compound for a notorious minority of poeple.

B is false. Most Buddhists live in Asia, particularly in China. It’s difficult to have an exact number of Buddhists in Asia but they easily exceed 300 million.

C is false. Buddhists are common people too. They have a lot of priests in monasteries but they are not even an important percentage of the great total of Buddhists who profess this religion or simply who sympathize with it.

D is true. Buddhism is the second largest religious community in 13 states. It is not easy to have an exact count, but they easily exceed the 2 to 4 million people.

In honor of rosa parks' contribution to the civil rights movement, the seat behind the driver on buses in major cities was reser
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

After people were asked not to sit in the seat behind the drivers in honor of Rosa Parks' fight for the Civil Rights movement, some people did actually sit in that seat. Making the assumption that these people were prejudiced or racist is an example of the correspondence bias.

Explanation:

On December 1st, 1955, Rosa Parks was commuting back home by bus, when the driver asked her and three other African Americans to stand up from their seats so that white passengers could seat there. While the three other passengers complied with the driver's order, Rosa Parks denied to do so, which ended up with her arrest, and later on with a social movement that decided to boycott the buses in Montgomery during Rosa Parks' trial. Although most of the people decided to leave the first seat behind the driver empty in honor of Rosa Parks, some of them actually seat on it anyways. Assuming that these people were racists is an example of a correspondence bias. A correspondence bias is the tendency to draw inferences about a person's personality based on a unique and specific observed behavior. There are many circumstances and reasons as to why that people sat on the seat that was meant to be empty that would not make them instantly perceived as racist or prejudiced, but assuming that they are based on that one action would be an example of a correspondence bias.
