what is the difference between electoral votes and the popular?
Answer:
Explanation:
Electors. Most states require that all electoral votes go to the candidate who receives the plurality in that state. After state election officials certify the popular vote of each state, the winning slate of electors meet in the state capital and cast two ballots—one for Vice President and one for President Electoral votes are allocated among the States based on the Census. Every State is allocated a number of votes equal to the number of senators and representatives in its U.S. Congressional delegation—two votes for its senators in the U.S. Senate plus a number of votes equal to the number of its Congressional districts. A candidate must receive an absolute majority of electoral votes (currently 270) to win the presidency or the vice presidency. If no candidate receives a majority in the election for president or vice president, that election is determined via a contingency procedure established by the 12th Amendment. Popular vote, in an indirect election, is the total number of votes received in the first-phase election, as opposed to the votes cast by those elected to take part in the final election. When citizens cast their ballots for president in the popular vote, they elect a slate of electors. Electors then cast the votes that decide who becomes president of the United States. Usually, electoral votes align with the popular vote in an election. Popular Vote. The votes that are cast by citizens in a presidential election. Electoral Vote. The group of electors that casts the official votes that elect the president and vice president.

Which factor most contributed to the Islamic World’s political fragmentation in the eleventh century?
Answer: The unifying forces operative at the end of the period of conversion and crystallization persisted during the period of fragmentation and florescence, but the caliphal lands in Iraq became less central. Even though Baghdad remained preeminent in cultural prestige, important initiatives were being taken from surrounding “regions”: Andalusia; the Maghrib and sub-Saharan Africa; Egypt, Syria, and the holy cities (Mecca and Medina); Iraq; and Iran, Afghanistan, Transoxania, and, toward the end of the period, northern India. Regional courts could compete with the ʿAbbāsids and with each other as patrons of culture. Interregional and intra-regional conflicts were often couched in terms of loyalties formed in the period of conversion and crystallization, but local history provided supplemental identities. Although the ʿAbbāsid caliphate was still a focus of concern and debate, other forms of leadership became important. Just as being Muslim no longer meant being Arab, being cultured no longer meant speaking and writing exclusively in Arabic. Certain Muslims began to cultivate a second language of high culture, New Persian. As in pre-Islamic times, written as well as spoken bilingualism became important. Ethnic differences were blurred by the effects of peripatetic education and shared languages. Physical mobility was so common that many individuals lived and died far from their places of birth. Cultural creativity was so noticeable that this period is often called the Renaissance of Islam.

Economic changes also promoted regional strengths. Although Baghdad continued to profit from its central location, caliphal neglect of Iraq’s irrigation system and southerly shifts in the trans-Asian trade promoted the fortunes of Egypt; the opening of the Sahara to Maghribi Muslims provided a new source of slaves, salt, and minerals; and Egyptian expansion into the Mediterranean opened a major channel for Islamicate influence on medieval Europe. Islamdom continued to expand, sometimes as the result of aggression on the part of frontier warriors (ghāzīs) but more often as the result of trade. The best symbol of this expansiveness is Ibn Faḍlān, who left a provocative account of his mission in 921, on behalf of the Baghdad caliph, to the Volga Bulgars, among whom he met Swedes coming down the river to trade.
By the beginning of the period of fragmentation and florescence, the subject populations of most Muslim rulers were predominantly Muslim, and nonsedentary peoples had ceased to play a major role. The period gave way to a much longer period (dated 1041–1405) in which migratory tribal peoples were once again critically important. In 1041 the reign of the Ghaznavid sultan Masʿūd I ended; by then the Ghaznavid state had lost control over the Seljuq Turks in their eastern Iranian domains and thus inaugurated Islamdom’s second era of tribal expansion. Because localism and cosmopolitanism coexisted in the period of fragmentation and florescence, the period is best approached through a region-by-region survey that underscores phenomena of interregional significance.

which would belong to the social class that was between the farmers and the nobles
Answer:
because you didn't provide enough detail for me to know what exactly you are talking about, i'll take a guess.
Explanation:
During long periods of peace, soldiers also supervised the peasants, farmers, and slaves who were involved in building such structures as pyramids and palaces. Skilled workers such as physicians and craftspersons made up the middle class. The social structures in most ancient civilizations were similar. Rulers were the highest in power. Next, it was preists or priestesses who advised the ruler. A marriage between a ruer and priestess were common. The nobles were firmly in control of society. They ran the government, owned the land, slaves, and servants. Gallup has, for a number of years, asked Americans to place themselves without any guidance into five social classes: upper, upper-middle, middle, working and lower. These five class labels are representative of the general approach used in popular language and by researchers.

If you could remove one Amendment from the Constitution, which one would you remove and why? (Please note – you cannot choose to remove 18 since it was already “technically” removed already by Amendment 21 and you have to remove one.)
Answer:
I would remove The 2nd amendment.
Explanation:
The 2nd amendment was really controversial since it gave the "Right" for the citizens to bear firearms.
The word "Right" indicates that it is something that is given to all citizens regardless of their situation or mental psyche.
Even though the vast majority of gun owners do not cause problems, the small part of the population who are experiencing mental issue sometimes could acquire these firearms and conducted an act of terrorism. (example of this would be the school shooting).
This is why I want to remove the amendment and maybe replace it with some strict regulations on how to acquire firearms.
“The indirect nature of monetary policy may be harder to control that the more direct fiscal policy”.
Based on your understanding, explain the above statement.
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Based on my understanding, I can explain this quote in the following way.
It is harder for the Central banks of the countries to manage and control the money supply in a country and also the interest rates of this money. The central banks want to stimulate a weak economy, and for that to happen, they have to create a stimulus such as the reduction of interest rates when borrowing money to people and companies in order to strengthen the money supply.
The direct fiscal policy is an easier method of control used by governments and central banks because, with this policy, they just increase taxation to earn more money. However, the government can also use the opposite action, to reduce taxation to support the economy by spending more money on the creation of programs and infrastructure.

After living in an apartment for the first five years of their marriage, Mindy and Raul have saved enough money for a down payment on their first house. They are spending a lot of their time looking for a suitable house. In the context of Hans Selye's research, Mindy and Raul are most likely experiencing:_____
a. an avoidance–avoidance conflict.
b. eustress.
c. cognitive dissonance.
d. self-deception.
Answer:
The correct answer is B. Eustress.
Explanation:
Eustress is a benign stress that is essential for a person’s mental growth, development, and mastery of a variety of skills. One finds eustress positive and enjoyable and does not consider it threatening or evil. Many important inventions are made in an atmosphere toned by eustress. For example, gym training causes eustress if it does not cause mental or physical overload, in which case it would be negative distress.
Eustress does not come to man himself, but usually has to be actively sought. A person does not usually learn from childhood to strive for a mental and physical environment that would naturally open the door to good stress and consideration. However, the inner world of man is such that when eustress is found, the brain chemistry of man is rewarded with effort, and man possibly learns this automatic pattern of behavior.
Does it make a difference if teaching is simply regarded as a profession,not a vocation and mission?
Answer:
The correct answer is yes.
Explanation:
When we speak of vocation, we refer to the desire to undertake a career, profession or any other activity when all the necessary skills or knowledge have not yet been acquired.
While the profession is the job or work that someone exercises and for which they receive financial compensation.
Now, someone who works only because they have studied and because that is their profession, will not be dedicated to their career in the same way that someone with a vocation will be.
This may not make a difference in any other career, but when it comes to teaching, a teacher with a vocation makes a big difference compared to one who is only going to teach to earn money and is not focused or passionate about their work and the well-being of their students.
