English
1 answer:
Rudiy273 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The mechanisms used to produce sound vary from one family of cetaceans to another. Marine mammals, such as whales, dolphins, and porpoises, are much more dependent on sound for communication and sensation than are land mammals, because other senses are of limited effectiveness in water. Sight is less effective for marine mammals because of the particulate way in which the ocean scatters light. Smell is also limited, as molecules diffuse more slowly in water than in air, which makes smelling less effective. However, the speed of sound is roughly four times greater in water than in the atmosphere at sea level. As sea mammals are so dependent on hearing to communicate and feed, environmentalists and cetologists are concerned that they are being harmed by the increased ambient noise in the world's oceans caused by ships, sonar and marine seismic surveys.[2]

How did industrialization change the nature of children's work? use two details to support your answer from " Kids at Work"
Novay_Z [31]
Well, I do not know what the "Kids at Work" text is but I will give you the best answer concerning this.

Industrialization changed the nature of children's work because it introduced them to jobs that are relatively easy but still require basic human skills to complete.

Children did not have to have much experience to work in factories as the tasks they did were pretty repetitive.  This allowed more children to be able to work in factories (as they did not need an education).

However, there came some very scary consequences from industrialization.  Although manufactured goods were now cheap and easy to produce, the labor needed was like I state earlier, not skill based for the most part.

This led to a large amount of people (including children) now working in these jobs which did not require skill and thus, because of the large amount of people needing jobs, the wages that were paid could be very. very low.

To add to this, the working conditions were very dangerous.  Many workers and kids died from issues that the company could have fixed but chose not too because there was no safety regulation and it would cost unnecessary amounts of money.

Kids worked long hours because many families needed as much work put in as they could get because of the lack of job positions that paid well.

After a long time, we finally began to develop some rules regarding business as well as child labor.

The cold, hard truth about this though is that child labor is still very common in other countries and its a hard issue to stop.  We even depend on it so although people may be against child labor, politicians know that the reason why prices are cheap are because of child labor and abusive systems like that.

Industrialization led to some dark, dark ways in which employers manipulated people

Please help I will mark brainlist. ( All u got to do is to write a story about the picture)
Free_Kalibri [48]

I gazed out into the icy world, the ocean of ice I knew I needed to cross. I could see the last flickering light of civilization, the fires burning bright in the homes. I shivered, I needed to get there soon, or else I might just freeze to death. I still remember when the first snow came. me and my family, in California, thought it was a miracle, little did we know it was a curse. when the snow didn't let up, my father got out the generator. he huddled me and my mother in blankets, taking only one for himself. about a week later, I awoke to my father's cold hand on mine. his blood had frozen inside him. me and my mother cried ourselves to sleep that night. soon we were out of food. we needed to leave. we started to walk, taking all of our belongings with us. we joined a small group of people heading for the last of civilization. one by one, they all died, either frozen or picked off by the animals. eventually, I was the last one. on some days, I thought it would be better to just kneel over and die. but I made it. I'm alive, and soon I will be home.
