Hello There!
Your answer would be <u>C). A tortious act may also be a criminal act.</u>
The reason why C would be your answer is because a tortious act is something that harms someone in any way. The reason why it "may" be a criminal act is because determine if the tortious act is a criminal act really depends on the scenario that is occurring. For example, someone could cause a tortious act in a way of self defense, this scenario would be debatable because the person that committed the tortious act had a valid reason in doing so, and that was protecting themselves. But, if a person was to cause a tortious act by hurting someone to steal from them, then that would definitely be a criminal act because they are performing dangerous things to someone else, and the person could file a lawsuit against it.
Let's dive into why the other answer choices are incorrect. We can use the old fashion process of elimination:
Answer choice "A). A tortious act is always a criminal act" is incorrect because it is not always a criminal act, it depends on the scenario it's in. This is the reason why this answer choice would be eliminated.
Answer choice "B). A criminal act is always a tortious act" is incorrect because there are MANY criminal acts that doesn't harm anyone, for example, tax evasion (not paying taxes) is a criminal act, but does not cause any harm to anyone. This is the reason why this answer choice would be eliminated.
Answer choice "D). A tortious act is the same as a contract dispute" is incorrect because harming someone is not the same as not doing what a contract says. A contact dispute is when someone that's part of a contract did not do a duty that the contract says that they're suppose to do, and that usually doesn't have to be any harm to anyone. That would not be the same as a tortious act, harming someone. This is the reason why this answer choice would be eliminated.
This best illustrates the value of the spacing effect.
This type of an effect refers to the fact that learning is better if it is extended over a long period of time. So, if you are studying for an exam, it is better to study for a month, where each day you will read a portion of a lesson, rather than pull an all-nighter and cram it all.
Answer:
The Fifth Amendment
Explanation:
Double jeopardy refers to punishing the same person twice for almost same crime or any act which is punishable.
Accordingly, in the fifth amendment there is a clause which clearly states that no person shall be prisoner for same offence for same period for same act.
As once a person is punished for an offence, clearly he shall not be punished again for the same act. This provides benefit to the prisoner, whether criminal act or other kind.
Thus, correct answer is fifth amendment.
Answer:
In emotional intelligence the term 'social skills' refers to the skills needed to handle and influence other people’s emotions effectively. This may sound like manipulation, but it can actually be as simple as understanding that smiling at people makes them smile back, and can therefore make them feel much more positive.
Hope this helped :)
