Answer: The psychological effect of insurance.

Explanation:

The saying we often hear also received a scientific explanation. This saying is defined as the effect of insurance. The scientists thus performed an experiment where they gave the participants of the experiment certain expensive objects. After a few days, they were asked to sell those items and invest the money in something else. Participants at that time were connected to certain instruments that monitored their reaction inside the body. Oscillations were observed in increases in certain hormones associated with fear and insecurity.

Among people, this saying alludes to safety, to keeping what you currently have and not exposing what you have to too much risk, or replacing it with something more than that because you can be left without everything.

Why was the Great Leap Forward significant?
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

It was significant because it was a disaster

Explanation:

After Mao won the Chinese civil war, he knew he had to move from an agricultural based economy to an industrial one. And so he did this by signing the great leap forward which forced everyone to work 24/7 without food and would be introduced with harsh quotas if they didn't work. This saw the death of 40-80 million Chinese people (A lot of results say 15 mil, 55mil, and more, but that's the best result I could find about how many people died during the great leap forward).
