Answer:

<em>"they also have to monitor the other two branches to make sure they are acting in accordance with the law."</em>

Explanation:

An independent clause is a group of words or phrases that can stand as a full sentence without the need for any other clause or words to complete it. It contains a subject and a verb, and a complete thought which makes it independent.

In the given sentence, there are two parts of the sentence. One is<em> "Not only does each branch of government have their own specific job"</em> which is a dependent clause as it does not contain a complete thought or is not a complete sentence. The other part of the second <em>"they also have to monitor the other two branches to make sure they are acting in accordance with the law"</em> is an independent clause as it not only contains a subject "they" and verb "monitor" but it also is a complete sentence on its own.

Thus, the second part of the sentence is an independent clause.

The people in Sighet refuse to believe that Hitler can or will exterminate the Jewish race; their lives continue as usual, despi
dusya [7]

Answer:

The Jews in Sighet refused to believe that Hitler can or will exterminate the Jewish race for they find it impossible for a whole race to be completely wiped off from the face of the earth. Also, they remained optimistic despite getting news about German's occupation of Jewish places for they thought that they are still far off from those places and that there will be some diplomatic solutions even if they are to come to Sighet.

Explanation:

Elie Wiesel's memoir "Night" recounts the horror that he, along with the other Jews, suffered during the German Nazi's regime, torturing the Jewish people. The Holocaust that was Hitler's attempts to fully annihilate the Jewish people was the main focus of the memoir.

The Jews of Sighet were at first adamant that none of the news about the torturing of Jews was alarming for it won't happen to them. He wrote

<em>"The Germans were already in our town, the Fascists were already in power, the verdict was already out—and the Jews of  Sighet were still smiling."</em>

They believed that either they are too far off from the main war front that German troops won't be able to reach. Or that Germany won't advance, believing that <em>"they will stay in Budapest.  For strategic reasons, for political reasons.."</em>

This was the belief of the Jews in Sighet. They also believed that a complete annihilation of the entire Jewish race is impossible, for they are not a small race. They realized that this was far from the truth when they found themselves surrounded by German troops within a short span of days.

nordsb [41]

Answer:

a. after; at the same time as

Explanation:

According to the James-Lange theory, we experience emotion <em>after</em> we notice our physiological arousal. According to the Cannon-Bard theory, we experience emotion <em>at the same time as we</em> become physiologically aroused. In James-Lange theory, a stimulus is the cause of the arousal of our body's physiological response. So according to this theory, physiological arousal is first and then we feel the emotion. According to Cannon-Bard's theory, also known as the thalamic theory of emotion, both the emotion and the physiological arousal happen simultaneously.
