According to the conflict theory of crime and deviance, social inequality and power underlie how crime, deviance and punishment is characterized. The wealthy and influential members in society determine whom and which behaviors are deemed deviant and punishable. The conflict theory can be misused to rationalize behavior because it implies that there aren't any behaviors or individuals who are inherently deviant , instead behaviors and individuals are deemed deviant when they do not serve the interests of affluent members of society.
Answer:
2-year-old humans.
Explanation:
Dr. Nason and his colleagues have worked at teaching sign language to a great ape. Over the past year, they have observed the ape's slow vocabulary acquisition very closely. When their study is complete, Dr. Nason and his team are likely to find that the language acquisition of the ape is similar to that observed in:
a) pigeons
b) 4-year-old humans
c) African Grey parrots
d) 2-year-old humans.
This study will likely be similar to a two years old humans because ape possess the same basic syntactic and semantic capacities as 2-year old children and a two year old humans do not yet rely on spoken or signed language purely as their primary means of communication, they may be better suited for a comparison with nonhuman primate communication
Full Question:
Which of the following scenarios would most likely result in an increase of a country’s literacy rate?
A. The French stock market crashes horribly.
B. Thailand builds more public and private schools.
C. The gap between the rich and the poor widens in China.
D. Peace negotiations between North Korea and South Korea break down.
Answer:
B. Thailand builds more public and private schools.
Explanation:
There are two main causes of illiteracy that many poor countries experience today :
- Lack of resources (this includes skill teachers, text books, school buildings)
- Even if the resource exist, many of them couldn't afford it.
This is why building more public and private schools could increase the country's literacy rate. The private schools was made to take students from family who can afford to pay for the cost of education. The money will be distributed to the public schools which were targeted toward students who came from poor economic background.
