Answer:
The correct answer is letter b. social loafing.
Explanation:
In social psychology, the term social loafing describes a phenomenon that takes place when individuals work in a group instead of on their own. Social loafing is the tendency people show to exert less effort when working with others. This phenomenon explains why sometimes groups are less efficient and less productive than if the individuals were to work on their own and be responsible for their own productivity. That is the case with Michelle. Now that the group is larger, she is making less effort, being "content to sit back and let others do the work".
Answer: The Roman Empire, at its height (c. 117 CE), was the most extensive political and social structure in western civilization. By 285 CE the empire had grown too vast to be ruled from the central government at Rome and so was divided by Emperor Diocletian (r. 284-305 CE) into a Western and an Eastern Empire. The Roman Empire began when Augustus Caesar (r. 27 BCE-14 CE) became the first emperor of Rome and ended, in the west, when the last Roman emperor, Romulus Augustulus (r. 475-476 CE), was deposed by the Germanic King Odoacer (r. 476-493 CE). In the east, it continued as the Byzantine Empire until the death of Constantine XI (r. 1449-1453 CE) and the fall of Constantinople to the Ottoman Turks in 1453 CE. The influence of the Roman Empire on western civilization was profound in its lasting contributions to virtually every aspect of western culture.
