Answer 1

Answer:

a. Explain the difference between an ethnic group and a religious group.

Ethnic vs. Religious Group Station

An ethnic group is a group of people who share cultural ideas and

beliefs that have been a part of their community for generations. The

characteristics they may have in common could include a language, a

religion, a shared history, types of foods, and a set of traditional stories,

beliefs, or celebrations. These things make up a common culture shared by

those in a particular ethnic group.

An example of an ethnic group from Southwest Asia is the Kurds.

This group lives in a mountain region that spans Iran, Iraq, Syria, and

Turkey. Kurds speak Kurdish, and most are Muslim. Kurds do not have

their own homeland or government. They are a minority group ruled by

the country where they live. Other examples of ethnic groups in the

Middle East include Arab and Persian, among others.

A religious group shares a belief system in a god or gods, with a

specific set of rituals and literature. People from different ethnic groups

may share the same religion, though they may be from very different

cultures. Religion has been important to the history of Southwest Asia.

Christianity, Islam, Judaism were started in this region. People who follow

Judaism are called Jews. Followers of Christianity are called Christians.

Followers of Islam are called Muslims.

1. What is an ethnic group?

2. What are their characteristics?

3. What are some examples of ethnic groups?

4. What is a religious group?

5. What are some examples of religious groups?

SS7G8 The student will describe the diverse cultures of the people who live in Southwest

Asia (Middle East)

b. Explain the diversity of religions within the Arabs, Persians, and

Kurds.

Arabs Station

Southwest Asia is home to many different ethnic groups who share

similar religions. The Arabs of Southwest Asia believe themselves to be

descendants of Abraham in the Bible, through his son Ishmael. They make

up the majority of those who live throughout the region known as

Southwest Asia, though there are many differences among them. Most

Arabs practice the religion of Islam and call themselves Muslims.

Those who call themselves Muslims are further divided, as some call

themselves Sunni Muslims, while others are Shia Muslims. Many Arabs

are Christians. Most Arabs, whether they are Muslim or Christian, speak

the Arabic language.

1. Who do the Arabs believe they are descendants from?

2. What religion are most Arabs?

3. What language do most Arabs speak?

SS7G8 The student will describe the diverse cultures of the people who live in Southwest

Asia (Middle East)

a. Explain the diversity of religions within the Arabs, Persians, and

Kurds.

Persians Station

Persians are those who live in the modern country of Iran. The

Persian people are descended from a different group than those who are

Arabs and Jews. Their ancestors were Indo-Europeans, from Central

Europe and Southern Russia.

The country of Persia became known as Iran after World War I.

Persians, or Iranians, speak Farsi, a language that uses the Arabic alphabet

but is actually a different language. They practice Islam, but most belong

to the Shia group of Muslims. About 15 percent of the Muslims in the

world are Shia. The other 85 percent are Sunni Muslims.

plz mark as the brainleast answer......

Explanation:

Answer 2

ARAB:

Dominant Religion: Islam, 93%

Location(s): Primarily Mauritania, Atlantic coast of Africa, North Africa, Egypt, Sudan, the Arabian Peninsula, and Syria and Iraq.

Culture: "To be an Arab, like an American, is a cultural trait rather than racial. The Arab world includes Muslims, Christians and Jews. Any person who adopts the Arabic language is typically called an Arab. Arabic is the official and the original language of the Qur'an, the Islamic holy book."

Some Arab traditions include, but are not limited to:

Long handshakes, grasped elbows, and walking hand in hand by two males.

ASHANTI

Location: Ghana

Culture: "The Ashanti religion is a mixture of spiritual and supernatural powers. They believe that plants, animals, and trees have souls. They also believe in fairies, witches, and forest monsters. There are a variety of religious beliefs involving ancestors, higher gods, or abosom, and 'Nyame', the Supreme Being of Ashanti."

Dominant Religion: Traditional Ashanti religion. (Monotheistic)

BANTU:

Location: Sub-Saharan Africa

Culture: "Although the Bantu speakers introduced an Iron Age and an agriculture civilization into a Neolithic hunting and gathering society, their way of life came to vary greatly from place to place."

Dominant Religion: Traditional Bantu religion (polytheistic animism)

SWAHILI:

Location: East Africa

Dominant Religion: Sunni Islam (finally, a simple answer)

Culture: "Swahili culture is the product of the history of the coastal part of the African Great Lakes region. As with the Swahili language, Swahili culture has a Bantu core and has also borrowed from foreign influences. ... As a consequence, they were influenced by Arabic, Persian, Indian, and Chinese cultures."

SIMILARITIES:

All of them are located somewhere in Africa, practice traditional religions, and are all somehow connected to Arab culture

What is a property tax?

A property tax is an ad valorem tax on the value of a property. The tax is levied by the governing authority of the jurisdiction in which the property is located. This can be a national government, a federated state, a county or geographical region or a municipality. Multiple jurisdictions may tax the same property.

Often a property tax is levied on real estate. It may be imposed annually or at the time of a real estate transaction, such as in real estate transfer tax. This tax can be contrasted to a rent tax, which is based on rental income or imputed rent, and a land value tax, which is a levy on the value of land, excluding the value of buildings and other improvements.

Under a property-tax system, the government requires or performs an appraisal of the monetary value of each property, and tax is assessed in proportion to that value.

The Monetary Policy of Tazi is controlled by the country's central bank known as the Bank of Tazi. The local unit of currency is the taz. Aggregate banking statistics show that collectively the banks of Tazi hold 300 million tazes of required reserves, 75 million tazes of excess reserves, have issued 7,500 million tazes of deposits, and hold 225 million tazes of Tazian Treasury bonds. Tazians prefer to use only demand deposits and so all money is on deposit at the bank.

Answers

Answer:

c. 1,250 million tazes

Explanation:

First we need to calculate the reserve ratio as follow

Reserve ratio = Required reserves / Total Deposits

Where

Required Reserves = 300 million tazes

Total Deposits = 7,500 million tazes

Placing values in the formula

Reserve ratio = 300 million tazes / 7,500 million tazes

Reserve ratio = 0.04

Reserve ratio = 4%

Now calculate the Money multiplier using following formula

Money Multiplier = 1 / Required reserves ratio

Placing values in the above formula

Money Multiplier = 1 / 4%

Money Multiplier = 1 / 0.04

Money Multiplier = 25

Calculate the Change in money Supply

Change in money supply = Value of treasury bond x Money Multiplier

Placing values in the formula

Change in money supply = 50 million tazes x 25

Change in money supply = 1,250 million tazes

Which best explains the need for the Great Compromise?
Yes

Answers

I can’t see a picture / any multiple choice options, but the reason they needed it was to settle the argument about legislative representation between small and big states during the philadelphia convention. it was to find a middle ground between the Virginia plan and the New Jersey plan.

According to population, the states would be represented differently in the lower house of the legislature than they would in the upper house.

What do you mean by Compromise?

Compromise is an understanding or resolution of a disagreement reached with concessions from each side.

During the 1787 Constitutional Convention, there was a contentious debate about congressional representation: States with bigger populations desired representation based on population, while smaller states demanded equal representation. The Great Compromise was devised by the founding fathers to prevent the convention from descending into anarchy. The accord, which established the current system of congressional representation, now has an impact on everything from so-called "pork barrel" legislation to how the electoral college counts votes in presidential elections.

Therefore, The representation of the states in the lower house of the legislature and the upper chamber of the legislature would differ based on population.
