Kohlberg's Theory of Moral Development identifies three levels of moral thinking that leads to a person's cognitive development: preconventional, conventional and postconventional. Each level is comprised by two stages.

In the latter, the individual accepts rules because of the importance of maintaining a functioning society. Morality is dictated from the outside.
Answer:
it would likely overturn the punitive damage award as grossly excessive
Explanation:
Melissa's tugboat accidentally collides with Tyler's yacht, and Tyler sues Melissa for negligence. A federal jury finds Melissa liable and awards Tyler $5,000 in compensatory damages as well as $50 million in punitive damages.

Answer:
Cuba and the United States have a close history that is characterized by conflict.
Explanation:
Cuba is a former colony of the Spanish Crown and it first gained its independence after the Spanish American war in 1898. In the years following the war, Cuba was subject to US military rule, but it gained formal independence in 1902. This however made it so the Cuban economy became dominated by American capital. The number of sugar estates owned by Americans soared so that by 1905 Americans owned nearly 10% of Cuba's total land area. At independence, American companies controlled what little industry there was in Cuba taking 80% of Cuba's ore exports. Americans also owned the sugar refineries and factories where they made cigarettes. This control and close involvement and investment in the Cuban economy grew up until the Cuban Revolution in 1959.
Answer:
1) Sometimes the Electoral College votes do not reflect the popular vote. It's the number of Electoral College votes that determines who is elected president.
Explanation:
The President of the United States is elected based on who gets the most votes on the Electoral College, not on who gets the largest percentage of the popular vote.
Sometimes, the winner can win the Electoral Vote without winning the Popular vote. This actually happened in 2016, when president Trump won the election based on electoral votes, but lost the popular vote to Hillary Clinton.
