Plessy v. Ferguson

Explanation:

Plessy v. Ferguson was a landmark ruling of the United States Supreme Court  in 1896 that provided legal justification for segregation and upheld the constitutionality of racial segregation laws on buses, public facilities etc.

We act on reality as we see it. Sociologists describe this process as the __________, meaning that we analyze a social context i
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

Definition of the situation

Explanation:

Definition of the situation means that we analyze a social context in which we find ourselves, determine what is in our best interest, and adjust our attitudes and actions accordingly.

This simply put is decribing that at every point we find ourselves, we try to find out what will be beneficial to us in the situation, then we end up adjusting our attitudes and actions to suit the situation as it is in our best interest.

Defining a situation helps one not to be caught unawares in any given situation.

Ambiguity is a word or phrase whose intent or meaning is unclear. Ambiguous sentences have more than one possible meaning within a sentence or phrase. This can confuse the reader and obscure the meaning of the sentence.

The correct answer is option B.

¿Qué es la contaminación? ¿Qué produce y cómo afecta a las personas?
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:  

Causas de la contaminación de los alimentos

Explanation:

Tanto las infecciones alimentarias como las intoxicaciones alimentarias pueden crear una carga para los sistemas de salud, cuando los pacientes necesitan tratamiento y apoyo, y sobre los sistemas alimentarios, cuando las empresas deben retirar los alimentos contaminados o abordar las preocupaciones del público. Todo comienza con el agente que causa la contaminación. Cuando una persona ingiere un contaminante alimentario, viaja al estómago y los intestinos. Allí, puede interferir con las funciones del cuerpo y enfermarlo. En la siguiente parte, nos centraremos en diferentes tipos de contaminantes alimentarios y examinaremos microbios, toxinas, productos químicos y otras sustancias comunes que pueden causar infecciones e intoxicaciones alimentarias. Comencemos con los patógenos, que incluyen bacterias y virus. Hace unos cien años, la fiebre tifoidea, la tuberculosis y el cólera eran enfermedades comunes causadas por alimentos y agua contaminados por patógenos. Con el tiempo, las mejoras en el procesamiento de alimentos y el tratamiento del agua eliminaron la mayoría de esos problemas en América del Norte. Hoy en día, otras bacterias y virus se han convertido en causas comunes de infección alimentaria.

What actions taken by the Nazis prevented Jewish people from leaving Germany?
dusya [7]

The Nazis said that the Jews had a plan for world domination and strongly criticized economic liberalism and financial capitalism, as they claimed that both were dominated by the Jews. One of the clear examples of this idea (situated at the time of the conspiracy theories used to accuse the Jews) was a book of Russian origin and an unknown author that was a sales success in Germany: "The protocols of the wise men of Zion".

When the Nazis came to power in Germany in 1933, the process of exclusion and violence against the Jews started progressively. Nazi speech, coupled with indoctrination carried out in German society, made Jews scapegoats and victims of intense persecution, not only by the government, but also by civilians.

One of the first actions taken by the Nazis against the Jews was a law, passed on April 7, 1933, called Berufsbeamtengesetz, translated into Portuguese as the Law for Restoration of Professional Public Service. This law definitively forbade Jews from taking public office. Other such laws have been passed for other trades, such as doctors and lawyers. In addition to the laws, Jews were the target of attacks by Nazi assault troops (SA) and their stores were boycotted nationwide.

As time passed, new actions against Jews were being organized in Germany. <u>This persecution forced thousands of Jews to flee the country, but many others failed, as no country was willing to receive them. In the 1930s, two measures taken by Hitler symbolized the reinforcement of anti-Semitism in Germany: the Nuremberg Laws and the Night of the Crystals.</u>
