Answer:
Maya astronomer-priests looked to the heavens for guidance. They used observatories, shadow-casting devices, and observations of the horizon to trace the complex motions of the sun, the stars and planets in order to observe, calculate and record this information in their chronicles, or "codices".
Explanation:
This number would greatly increase, as there are many nations that don't have their own their own country. Some are part of a bigger country (the Tamils in India) and some are distributed among many countries (the Kurds)
Recognizing all those nations could increase some conflicts, such as that between the Kurds and Turkish in Turkey.
I think that a good definition should acknowledge that some nations have independent states and some are part of another state - the defining characteristics should be a sense of unity among the nation.

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"
