Answer:

Between 1945 and 1960, three dozen new states in Asia and Africa achieved autonomy or outright independence from their European colonial rulers. There was no one process of decolonization. In some areas, it was peaceful, and orderly. In many others, independence was achieved only after a protracted revolution. A few newly independent countries acquired stable governments almost immediately; others were ruled by dictators or military juntas for decades, or endured long civil wars. Some European governments welcomed a new relationship with their former colonies; others contested decolonization militarily. The process of decolonization coincided with the new Cold War between the Soviet Union and the United States, and with the early development of the new United Nations. Decolonization was often affected by superpower competition, and had a definite impact on the evolution of that competition. It also significantly changed the pattern of international relations in a more general sense.Explanation:

I believe it was negative. When the colonist arrived from Spain to Latin America, many Natives died and were killed, and I do not think that is such a great thing. I believe that the discovery of Latin America did contribute to many new discoveries such as foods and the columbian exchange that changed the diets of Europeans which made people more healthy and live longer. However, all these discoveries of animals, and foods lead to famine, death, and disease among the Native Americans hence also leading to slavery due to the many deaths of Natives, the colonist needed workers so, slavery then happened.

How can early experiences modify the brain? Discuss impoverished and enriched environments in your answer.

natka813 [3]

Answer:

Our genetic predispositions and our specific environments interact. Environments can trigger gene activity, and genetically influenced traits can evoke responses from others.

As a child's brain develops, neural connections grow more numerous and complex. Experiences then prompt a pruning process, in which unused connections weaken and heavily used ones strengthen. Early childhood is an important period for shaping the brain, but throughout our lives our brain modifies itself in response to our learning.

In which situation has the precautionary principle been most strictly applied? (3 points)

Cloud [144]

Answer: The last option.

Explanation: The precautionary principle would be considered to be most strictly applied where the precautionary measure is most disproportionate to the given risk. In all but the last option, there are either measures taken in response to concrete problems, or the precautionary measures are actually relaxed. In the last option, though, there are merely “fears” that antibiotics and growth hormones could cause harm (no experimental evidence), but the school board still takes the strict precautionary measure of mandating that schools only serve organic milk.

Do you believe that cutting or reducing the amount of pe in schools in favor of core academic subjects is a good idea? why or wh

finlep [7]

This questions seems to be a question where you are required to mention more than one point. The question has two options of course, I'll tell you my personal answer to the question in broken up points.

I disagree with this statement because I believe that Physical Education (PE) is a very important subject for each individual.
It has been proven that any sort of physical education improves the activity of your brain, if an individual's level of brain activity is higher, it means he learns more from other education and performs better on his tests.
Physical Education is also a practical lesson that relieves stress off students from all the other core subjects that do not that involve as much practical activity.
Physical Education makes you healthier, the healthier you are the better your life style and (technically) life time will be.
Physical Education is also now proven to wake up students, this means students are less lazy and goes back to one of my previous points mentioning a students activity and performance in a lesson or a test.

I hope this helped, any other questions let me know. :3
