Identify the type of tax described in each scenario.
Situation
Type of Conflict
Hola
One family makes $50,000 a year, and
another family makes $100,000. Both
families buy the same car at the same
dealership, and both families pay $1,500
in sales tax.
At federal income tax time, two
neighbors pay their taxes. As they are
talking one day, they realize that they
are not in the same income tax bracket,
so one neighbor pays a higher
percentage of his income in taxes than
the other does.
Two people who make very different
incomes pay the same percentage
of their income in taxes.
Answer:
a. REGRESSIVE
Regressive conflict/ tax refers to a scenario where people earning less pay more of their income in taxes. In this scenario, the family making $50,000 paid:
= 1,500 / 50,000
= 3% of their income
Family making $100,000 only paid:
= 1,500 / 100,000
= 1.5%
The low earning family paid more so this is regressive.
b. PROGRESSIVE
Progressive tax refers to people in higher income tax brackets paying a higher percentage of their taxes. This is the scenario here so this is a progressive conflict.
c. PROPORTIONAL
As the term implies, proportional tax refers to people paying by a certain proportion of their income. With these two paying the same percentage on their income, they are experiencing a proportional conflict.
Answer:
A. One family makes $50,000 a year, and another family makes $10,000. Both families buy the same car at the same dealership, and both families pay $1,500 in sales tax. A. Regressive
B. At federal income tax, two neighbors pay their taxes. As they are talking one day, they realize that they are not in the same income tax bracket, so one neighbor pays a higher tax percentage of his income in taxes than the others. B. Progressive
C. Two people who make very different incomes pay the same percentage of their income taxes. C. Proportional

What are the two main defenses you can use in the event of a discriminatory practice allegation, and what exactly do they involve
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Although there are no options attached, we can say the following.
The two main defenses you can use in the event of a discriminatory practice allegation are Business necessity and Bonafide Occupation Qualification.
Business necessity. In legal terms, Business necessity means that the company has a justified argument to fire an employee in order to pursue the goals of the company. This is legal resource employers have to support their decisions of laying off employees.
Bonafide Occupation Qualification. This means that there is a valid justification due to gender or age, for not allowing an employee to perform a duty in the workplace. So employers use this Bonafide Occupation Qualification as a legal argument to fire an employee.
Although human organs transplantation is safer for health human organ trade is crime explain
Answer:
Organ trade (also known as Red market) is the trading of human organs, tissues, or other body products, usually for transplantation.[1][2] According to the World Health Organization (WHO), organ trade is a commercial transplantation where there is a profit, or transplantations that occurs outside of national medical systems. There is a global need or demand for healthy body parts for transplantation, which exceeds the numbers available.
As of January 2020, there are more than 112,000 candidates waiting for organ transplant in the United States.[3] The median wait time for heart and liver transplants in the U.S. between 2003–2014, was approximately 148 days. Average time waiting for donor organs varies significantly depending on the patients UNOS status. Patients listed as Heart Status A1 wait an average of 73 days.[4]
There is a worldwide shortage of organs available for transplantation,[5] yet the commercial trade of human organs is illegal in all countries except Iran. Despite these prohibitions, organ trafficking and transplant tourism remain widespread (however, the data on the extent of the black market trade in organs is difficult to obtain). The question of whether to legalize and regulate the organ trade to combat illegal trafficking and organ shortage is greatly debated. This discussion typically centers on the sale of kidneys by living donors, since human beings are born with two kidneys but need only one to survive.

What would be the effect on groundwater and surface water of someone having a car that leaks oil and leaves a large oil spill on the pavement? (use the information above to help you)
Answer:
Explanation:
The effect would ultimately be the same as if an oil spill happened in the local river and/or ocean. Water and Oil do not mix and the oil becomes thick and remains on top of the water. Water ultimately drags the oil with it and eventually into the river and ocean. There the oil will cause oxygen from passing through the water, therefore killing all local plants in and near the rivers as well as causing harm to local animals that bathe and drink in the contaminated water

B.Explain how cultural norms and practices influence the development of a matriarchal social system citing a specific historical or modern-day example.
Answer and Explanation:
The best example of matriarchal society that we can cite is the Minoan civilization. This is because, this civilization had its norms and cultural practices based on religion. However, the religion of this civilization was based exclusively on the worship of female deities. In this way, society was governed based on mtriarchal concepts, giving the feminine as an element of importance and respect.
In this society, women were valued based on their fertility and ability to generate life, as well as the goddess Venus, also called by them the mother goddess.
Describe the circumstances that led to the creation of the Bill of Rights?
Answer: In the summer of 1787, delegates from the 13 states convened in Philadelphia and drafted a remarkable blueprint for self-government -- the Constitution of the United States. The first draft set up a system of checks and balances that included a strong executive branch, a representative legislature and a federal judiciary.
The Constitution was remarkable, but deeply flawed. For one thing, it did not include a specific declaration - or bill - of individual rights. It specified what the government could do but did not say what it could not do. For another, it did not apply to everyone. The "consent of the governed" meant propertied white men only.
The absence of a "bill of rights" turned out to be an obstacle to the Constitution's ratification by the states. It would take four more years of intense debate before the new government's form would be resolved. The Federalists opposed including a bill of rights on the ground that it was unnecessary. The Anti-Federalists, who were afraid of a strong centralized government, refused to support the Constitution without one.
In the end, popular sentiment was decisive. Recently freed from the despotic English monarchy, the American people wanted strong guarantees that the new government would not trample upon their newly won freedoms of speech, press and religion, nor upon their right to be free from warrantless searches and seizures. So, the Constitution's framers heeded Thomas Jefferson who argued: "A bill of rights is what the people are entitled to against every government on earth, general or particular, and what no just government should refuse, or rest on inference."
