Answer: C. operational definitions
Explanation: operational definitions can be simply refered to as the statements of operationalization (or explanation of methods) used to define procedures needed to determine nature of a phenomenon like (object, term or variable), as well its properties, for example; chemical composition, quantity etc. This procedure specifically shows how variables are measured and if they are measured in the right way by the researcher (show validity).
Only about 3 percent of mammals are monogamous, and orangutans are not one of these. Gibbons, for example, are a type of ape that mates for life, but they have a different reproductive cycle that orangutans. Orangutans reproduce very slowly, and the females are very selective in the process of mating, so what happens is that the males compete in this process with each other.
In captive orangutans, it is shown that females tend to avoid copulation seeking out desirable males, but that the males tend to forcefully initiate it daily, regardless of the resistance they get from females. Also, the males and females differ in size, with males being bigger than females, and when smaller male orangutans copulate with a female, larger orangutans often take their place forcefully.
In conclusion, you can see that orangutans are not monogamous, but rather promiscuous in their reproductive behavior, when you see a bigger male forcefully initiating copulation with a smaller female, displacing the smaller males.
Answer:
The evil in the murder will definitely lie in the action itself.
Explanation:
Death is the expected biological destination of all living thing.
Living things are described as such because they have the characteristic of being able to die.
Every living thing especially humans and in some cases animals and plants have the right to follow through this course (the Life-Death Continuum) naturally. Any event which intentionally circumvents this naturally transition without any moral/good reason (such as murder) is considered evil.
The event is not evil. Death is a necessary part of the cycle of life and is important for life to continue.
For example, cells die for new ones to be born. We harvest plants and plant new ones etc.
To adopt a normative approach alone would down-play the requirement and rights to life for as long as it should last.
Cheers!
