As the veneration of defunct ancestors is a fundamental element of most African traditional cultures, it is not surprising that the dead is also a common subject for masks. Masks referring to dead ancestors are most often shaped after a human skull.

Masks were very important during ceremonies because they were used to entertain the people. The masks made dancers look more exciting, and they played a major role in arousing the interest of the audience. The mask wearer can become a sort of medium that allows for a dialogue between the community and the spirits.

A primary care physician is a doctor who treats many types of illness and injuries. A specialist is a medical professional who h

Answer:

A visit to a specialist most likely becomes handy when the medical condition is critical. Critical in the sense that the generalist medical practitioner has tried unsuccessfully to treat such a condition without success.

 

For instance, I know a friend who has tried severally to treat as skin allergy which occurs on her hands and fingers. At first, we all thought it was a minor skin irritation or fungal infection which would go away. She became worried after seeing three different generalists doctors and using at least 8 different epiderm creams.

An epiderm cream is a cream that is used to treat skin infections or conditions.

So at this point, she decided to see a specialist.

One of the advantages of seeing a specialist is that they are very versed in the treatment of a narrow area of medicine and are most likely to come up with solutions that were missed by the generalist. I once had an eye allergy which was recurrent. I was forced to see a specialist after several years of managing it and being used as a "guinea pig" by generalist practitioners, all of which were unsuccessful at treating the ailment and who didn't have the decency to recommend a specialist.

Another advantage of seeing a specialist is that they are thorough and unlike the generalist, less likely to give a misdiagnosis. A misdiagnosis or a wrong treatment, such as it was in my experience above, can prove to be quite costly and even fatal.

So it's best to see a specialist if you have tried a generalist medical practitioner and the situation persists after several treatments. A good generalist practitioner would recommend seeing a specialist as soon as they spot a history of recurrent unsuccessful treatments from generalists.

On the other hand, for treatment of minor ailments, such as a cold, a minor burn, or infection, it is safe to see a generalist.

Cheers

Select ALL the correct words in the passage. Which three sentences in the story indicate that that the passage is an ex nihilo t
inessss [21]

Ex nihilo stands for "out of nothing". It is a Latin phrase. This type of creation often appears when the theory of creation is discussed. For example, creatio ex nihilo, which can be broken into "creation" + "out of nothing" is primarily showcased in religious and philosophical context.

However, young writers have utilized many ways to implant this theory in their write-ups, to create wonders from nothing.

Moving on to the question, the three correct statements that carry the flavor of this theory are mentioned below:

opt-B: There was as yet no man, nor any animal, nor bird, nor fish, nor crawfish, nor any pit, nor ravine, nor green herb, nor any tree; nothing was but the firmament.

opt-C: Lo, now how the heavens exist, how exists also the Heart of Heaven; such is the name of God; it is thus that he is called.  

opt-D: And the creation was verily after this wise: Earth, they said, and on the instant, it was formed; like a cloud or a fog was its beginning.

All the three statements ensure the development of life, heaven, and Earth out of nothing.
