Answer:

By lot" means that Athens citizens (white males over the age of fifteen) put their name on a stick of wax and put it a container and someones drew out some of the sticks, or drew "lots." And sorry for the short answer.

Explanation:

Assembly was set by the Council of Five Hundred, which, unlike the Assembly, was composed of representatives chosen by lot from each of 139 small territorial entities, known as demes, created by Cleisthenes in 507. The number of representatives from each deme was roughly proportional to its population.

AURORKA [14]

Answer:

A, B and D

Explanation:

Man-made disasters can be prevented by applying the options above.

Alarm systems have proven to be very effective in alerting people to potential dangers in their environment whether in the home or workplace. For example, a fire alarm which goes off on the detection of smoke enable people to evacuate a building and the fire department to be called in to contain the situation.

Plans for evacuation and shelter in the event of a disaster cannot be underestimated. For example, the evacuation of people living near and around nuclear reactor sites or chemical plants should be planned for.

Regular inspection by licensed inspectors, of man-made structures goes a long way in helping determine whether those structures are still durable and reliable. For instance, regular inspection of old architectures like buildings and bridges enable us see warning signs about a potential disaster and take steps to stop it.

Implementation of a fail-safe mechanism recognises potential failures in system designs and protects against such failures resulting in a fatality.
