We are pretty good at making same-person judgements.But it is a problem for soul criterion of personal identity.Personal identity refers to the way people percieve the themselves and about their identity.We are good at making the judgements for others,telling them the advices and solutions about their problems..But when the same problem comes to us we find difficult to resolve it.A person with good self esteem could never be judgemental.But the person who has low self-esteem try to defend oneself from others.
Explain why the apparent fact that we are pretty good at making same-person judgments is a...
Explain the memory theory of personal identity. According to this theory, why are you the same person as you were yesterday?
Indicate if the following questions are True or False. Explain “Why” your answer is True or False. It is good to incur high opportunity costs for an activity one is engaged in. Why? Price of elasticity measures vary along the demand curve. Why? Employing economic cost/profit instead of accounting cost/profit when making business decisions tend to generate more efficient or superior economic results for firms. Why? Firms do not try to maximize their output. Why?
Making Reference to the Central Limit Theorem, explain why we expect many continuous traits in natural populations to have distributions that are nearly normal. Explain the main idea behind how GWA is carried out and what properties differentiate GWA mapping from classical linkage mapping.
What is biomimicry and why is artificial photosynthesis a good example? How do we currently retrieve and produce energy? List at least two problems with our current energy source and explain how artificial photosynthesis resolves these problems.
Question 6 1 pts In light of the previous question, how can we explain the fact that the Hawaiian bobtail squid has clearly evolved to precisely control the association with its bacterial symbiont, whereas the bacterium shows no signs of adapting to the same symbiosis? (Why does the animal host appear to be 'winning the evolutionary race to control their interaction?) symbiotic bacteria are acquired from vast, free-living populations that adapt to their non-symbiotic (free-living) conditions it is actually best...
6 Explain activity theory and disengagement theory. Is it normal for an older person to disengage from life? Or, is it more likely that older people will continue to pursue activities consistently to the end of their life? 7 Theories in Gerontology can be divided into macro and micro theories. What do these theories cover and why is each category necessary for viewing aging? What is the difference between aging processes and aging structures? 8 What should we call older...
Elimination Reactions Prelab Date 1. Explain why we get a different product when we use bulky bases compared to smal bases. (3 pts) 2. If we start with 25.0 mL of 0.100 M sodium methoxide and 25.0 g of 2-bromobutane, what will be the theoretical yield of your product? (Use dimensional analysis/ Do not break up your steps/Read the beginning of your lab to guide you on how to do this problem). (3 pts) 3. How can one determine which...
respond: a. The global recession forced thousands of firms into bankruptcy. Does this fact alone confirm that “external factors are more important than internal factors” in strategic planning? Why or why not? First, I don't like to use one example to prove a rule for many. ONE salmonella outbreak may have been caused by contaminated spinach. This does not prove that all spinach is dangerous or unhealthy. Two, I do not believe that external factors are more important than internal...
Part 1: Why do we need to create an E-ER model for an ER model? Explain the ‘overlap’ and ‘disjoint’ rules of E-ER model Part 2: You are creating a database for a college/university. Develop an E-ER Model with this given information: 1) Two specializations of Person: employee, student Person can be employee and/or student at the same time 2) Three specializations of Employee: staff, faculty, student assistant 3) Two specializations of Student: Graduate, undergraduate student Student...
Q10. In this problem we will explore the power of experts in creating and destroying information cascades. Let's keep the same setup as in lecture and Chapter 16; ordinarily individuals can see the behaviors but not the private signals of all previous individuals. Each individual receives a private signal ("High" or "Low") and must decide whether to Accept or Reject the technology, belief, behavior, practice, etc., in question. To be concrete, let's assume we are talking about a technology-say, a...
