Answer:

<em>The Minerals Management Service (MMS)</em>

Explanation:

In 2010  Deepwater Horizon project exploded and killed 11 people causing also the largest oil spill in US history.

The MMS was the federal agency responsible for overseeing offshore drilling, however, they had received financial favors (bribes) from oil companies and had a severe conflict of interest, they ignored science and underestimated environmental impacts in order to ensure the speedy approval of oil industry projects among other acts of negligence. The MMS was in part responsible for this event, or at the very least for not handling correctly.

Answer:

Islam influences the Middle East a lot. Most muslim women wear hijab. The hijab is something to cover your hair......Islam has had an enormous impact on the culture since the time of the Prophet Muhammad. Not only did Islam have a great change in culture in Arab countries, but it also developed throughout the world! Islam has helped to shape the culture from the language, customs, business, institution building, and to the construction of political arrangements.

If you are still confused, here is another answer that might help you:

Islam is a dominant religion in the Middle East. Several important holy sites, including Mecca, Medina, and Jerusalem, are located in the area. The religion influences dress, behavior, political systems, and other elements. Some nations use Sharia law, while others have created civil laws more loosely based on Islam’s tenets. Many Middle Eastern nations combine these beliefs and cultural practices with secular principles.

Hope this helps anyone that is searching for an answer!!! :)
