Answer Explanation:

Attorneys finds it more convenient to advocate for prosecutors or the police whom are believed to be upholding law and order in the society but may find it difficult to defend a guilty person against serious charges. But it is worthy to note that the failure of these attorneys to advocate for both parties can permit the law enforcement to trample on the liberty of anyone and everyone, even those that may be innocent.

Answer:

Explanation:

The United States legal system is founded on the basis that it is better to let a guilty individual(s) go free than to wrongly convict an innocent individual(s).

A criminal defense attorney's job is to raise reasonable doubt in his or her client’s guilt, as long as it is ethical to do so. Attorneys are required to zealously represent their clients, no matter what their personal view of the suit may be. Defense attorneys are required to do their possible best to advocate for their clients, even if the attorney believes the client is guilty.

IT IS NOT THE ROLE OF THE ATTORNEY TO DETERMINE WHETHER A CLIENT IS GUITY OR NOT. IT IS THE ATTORNEY'S JOB TO MAKE SURE THAT HIS OR HER CLIENT GETS A FAIR TRIAL.

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

1. Nature and nurture.

2. Continuity and stages.

3. Stability and change.

Explanation:

Developmental psychology is the scientific study of how and why human beings change over the course of their life.  Developmental psychology currently focuses in the entire human being lifespan.

Developmental psychology examines our physical, cognitive, and social development and it focuses on three major issues:

  1. Nature and nurture: How does our genetic inheritance (our nature) interact with our experiences (our nurture) to influence our development?
  2. Continuity and stages: What parts of development are gradual and continuous? What parts change abruptly in separate stages?
  3. Stability and change: Which of our traits persist through life? Which traits of characteristics of ourselves change as we grow older?

So, the question is asking for one of the three major concerns of developmental psychology but since there are no options given, I've given you the three major concerns which developmental psychology focuses in.

S_A_V [24]

Answer:

d. openness to experience

Explanation:

<u>People who are more open to new experiences and ideas are easier to hear and receive a persuasive argument in the discussion. </u>

Those who are<em> more open to new experiences</em>, <em>who enjoy learning</em> and <em>have more need to evaluate things</em> will take the arguments into the account, review them, and, if they prove to be useful and true for them, to accept them.

People who show the need for consistency and high attitude importance are more difficult to persuade. <u>Those who are more closed off and who have their mindset on things are always more difficult to revive the well-rounded argument.  </u>
