Most protections of the Bill of Rights applied to state governments.

Prior to the ratification of the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States,  The Bill of Rights ( the first 10 Amendments to the Constitution) only applied to the Federal government. This meant that  states were not obliged to adopt the Amendments and the laws that came as a result of them.

After the Civil War ended, the Fourteenth Amendment was created and ratified, the Bill of Rights was now applicable not only to federal courts but also to state ones. This meant that citizens were now more protected, as federal and states obligations are the same in most cases.

Studies have concluded that people progress through maslow's needs hierarchy as predicted.
irga5000 [103]
That statement is False.
MAslow hierarchy of needs depict a clear path which indicates that people wouldn't be able to fulfill the needs on higher hierarchy if we haven't fulfill the needs on lower hierarchy.
Here's his hierarchy's arrangement from top to bottom:
- self actualization
- Self-esteem
- Love/belonging
- safety
- Physiological

But often times, we do not follow this hierarchy from bottom to top. (for example, some obsessed individual might want to sacrifice need for love/belonging as long as she could realized her life-long dream i.e: self-actualization)

How does a climate pattern of the western United states the reflect occurrence of the rain shadow effect
tatiyna

Explanation and answer:

A rain shadow is a patch of land that has been forced to become a desert because mountain ranges blocked all plant-growing, rainy weather. On one side of the mountain, wet weather systems drop rain and snow. On the other side of the mountain—the rain shadow side—all that precipitation is blocked.

In a rain shadow, it’s warm and dry. On the other side of the mountain, it’s wet and cool. Why is there a difference? When an air mass moves from a low elevation to a high elevation, it expands and cools. This cool air cannot hold moisture as well as warm air. Cool air forms clouds, which drop rain and snow, as it rises up a mountain. After the air mass crosses over the peak of the mountain and starts down the other side, the air warms up and the clouds dissipate. That means there is less rainfall.

You’ll often find rain shadows next to some of the world’s most famous mountain ranges. Death Valley, a desert in the U.S. states of California and Nevada, is so hot and dry because it is in the rain shadow of the Sierra Nevada mountain range. The Tibetan Plateau, a rain shadow in Tibet, China, and India has the enormous Himalaya mountain range to thank for its dry climate.
