Confirmation bias is the tendency to search for, interpret, favor, and recall information in a way that confirms one's preexisting beliefs or hypotheses.It is a type of cognitive bias and a systematic error of inductive reasoning. People display this bias when they gather or remember information selectively, or when they interpret it in a biased way. The effect is stronger for desired outcomes, emotionally charged issues, and for deeply entrenched-beliefs. (Wikipedia)

olga_2 [115]

Answer:

below

Explanation:

China's geographic features allow for many advantages and disadvantages. To begin, the advantages of China's isolation are: protection from enemies, protection from linguistical changes, being secured and safe from monsoons. With isolation, it would be rare for enemies to reach their territories, allowing for a peaceful community to commence and thrive. Meanwhile, while keeping isolation, their language is safe and unchanged by foreigners, so it remains cultural to the Chinese people and decreases the chances of language death early on. Lastly, with them being isolated, they have a less of a chance of being impacted by a monsoon so heavily, though that later changes. To begin with disadvantages, within isolation, the Chinese may have trouble communicating with outsiders which could result in a downfall if they need resources and have no one to turn; which leads us to the issue of trade. With an isolated community, the Chinese had to depend solely on their people for supplies along with work; which may inhibit their abilities of producing food, technology, etc.
