Explanation:

Some trees keep their leaves all year round for Photosynthesis - this is true because they keep their needles year-round, in the winter pine trees are able to photosynthesize!

In the autumn, most trees lose their leaves to save energy through the darker winter - is true because the main reason for leaf drop on most trees is that, come winter, it gets pretty cold and dry in our part of the world. Rather than expend energy to protect these fragile organs, trees shed leaves to conserve resources.

In the spring, new leaves grow for absorbing light as the Sun becomes hotter .- YES! this is true , and new leaves do not grow back in the summer it only continues to grow bigger

1.What type of legal system did Hammurabi set up?

aleksklad [387]

1. ANSWER: The Code of Hammurabi

Hammurabi set up the "Code of Hammurabi" with 282 laws and where the famous phrase "an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth" came from. Although this code is actually more complex and less sinister-sounding than the phrase (which is not a direct quote, by the way), this legal system is meant to protect everyone abused, offering just compensation to everyone harmed.

In this system though, the accuser has to be the one to bring the accused to trial.

2. ANSWER: He wants to protect the abused.

Since Hammurabi was ruling a very diverse set of people, he set out to find a set of universal laws to govern everyone. He tapped legal experts to collect previously existing laws and examine them until he formed the Code with 282 laws.

Quoting Hammurabi directly, he said that he set out these laws "to make justice visible in the land, to destroy the wicked person and the evil-doer, that the strong might not injure the weak."

3. ANSWER: The laws influenced future cultures.

The Code of Hammurabi is often attributed as the first set of written laws to be uncovered. Although this may not be the case as there are older laws that were uncovered, being recognized as the first set of written laws often led leaders of future cultures to adopt the system, making these leaders lead the way Hammurabi led.

The United Nations has acknowledged the existence of 192 nation-states as of 2006. If the United Nations were to acknowledge nat

Artyom0805 [142]

This number would greatly increase, as there are many nations that don't have their own their own country. Some are part of a bigger country (the Tamils in India) and some are distributed among many countries (the Kurds)

Recognizing all those nations could increase some conflicts, such as that between the Kurds and Turkish in Turkey.
I think that a good definition should acknowledge that some nations have independent states and some are part of another state - the defining characteristics should be a sense of unity among the nation.
