he accurate statements regarding the AIDS epidemic in Africa are the following:

1. HIV was first diagnosed in the 1980's. Although the virus was tracked back to 1959, it was during the 1980's when the first patient was diagnosed with the term HIV virus.

2.Some people did not seek treatment for HIV because of the social stigma of the disease. A lot of people were afraid of seeking treatment or even getting tested for HIV, in fear that if being affected by it, they would be discriminated and marginalized from society.

3.Over half of all HIV/AIDS deaths in the world are in Africa. In 2017, there were 36.9 million people living with HIV in the world. From that number, over 20 million people live in different parts of Africa.

4. Civil war and economic problems slowed the response of many African countries.

Instances like what happened in Toms River, NJ to the lead crisis in Flint, Michigan and other cities around the country highlig

Answer:

through organization and motivation

Explanation:

I believe the best way to accomplish this is through organization and motivation. As a motivator, usually individuals in a population want something in return, in such a situation as the Flint Michigan water crisis, the motivator needs to be change and clean water. Once a population has a motivation to get involved it makes it much easier to fight for change. Unfortunately, this needs to go hand in hand with organization. If a population wants to rise up and get involved towards change, they usually do not do so since they do not know-how and believe that they are alone. Therefore, there needs to be someone that organizes the population and brings them together so that they are united in this struggle.

MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

c) Object permanence

Explanation:

Jean Piaget developed a theory about cognitive development according to which people go through different stages on learning since the day they are born and until adulthood.

Piaget's states that cognitive development goes through different stages and in each one of them the brain acquires new abilities and capacities.

Object permanence refers to the ability to understand that objects still exist even if they are no longer visible. At first, little kids don't understand this and they think that when an object is out of sight it doesn't exist anymore (and also that's why they love to play peek-a-boo for example), however, as they grow older they understand that objects continue existing even when they are not in sight.

In this example, Jonathan is eight-months-old and he is left by his mother at the baby-sitter's place. <u>The minute he could not see her, he started to cry. </u>Because of Jonathan's age and his reaction we can say that<u> he hasn't developed the concept of "object permanence" yet and he's crying because he thinks his mom just disappeared.</u>

Thus, the concept that would explain Jonathan's behavior would be "object permanence"
