Answer: commercialization of sport is the use of sport the make income and profit. This has been a good idea for sport, because it made sports participants to become more serious, with passion so that they can make more money.

Though it has caused some ethical issues, because sport before is just made to entertain people and for fun, now the participants in sport now has the ideology of making income and not to entertain people.

2. Sports has been also corrupted by its role in the world of commerce, because of people who use sports as a bet game. Some business men who use sports to bet now pay an opponent to lose, just to make money, and because the opponent is participating in that sport just to make good profit, he will accept the money to lose. This has lead many sports game to bias result, because it's been bet upon.

3. Sports game has become another commodity, which you can buy and sell. In sports game, football for instance, Cristiano Ronaldo to leave real Madrid to Juventus, because of commercialization, made so many fans of real Madrid move to become fans of Juventus, because of sentiment. Commercialization of sport has brought in sentiment to sports. Players no longer see sports as an area to achieve dream and make name for their country, they now see it as a place to make money, for example in football, Neymar left Barcelona where he was building a good career and making good name for his country, to PSG because of the money being offered to him.

Commercialization of sports has robbed sports it's defining character of carreer achievement and fans entertaining, to become source for income by betting and winning, and for players to make more money.

When nations become more tied to the world economy, indigenous forms of social organization inevitably break down into nuclear family organization, impersonality, and alienation. Group of answer choices True False
Solution 1

Answer: when nation's get tired of world economy, the indigenous forms of social organization will not break down to the following. Therefore the answer to the question is "FALSE.

Explanation: when any nation is tired of world economy, the first possible outcome to that nation is going into recession. The social organization are the relationship between individual and it's social group.

So when nation's become tired of world economy, social organization can not become a nuclear family, it is called social organization, because it is made up of people from different families and background, with it's different individual character.

Impersonality is the absence or negligence of human character towards something, or we can say it's the reduction of human desires towards it's needs. If a nation is tired of world economy and goes into recession, it will not stop individuals of that nation to become less expectant of their desires and satisfaction, they will desire for it and hope to have it some day.

Alienation which is the transfer of ownership, occurs everyday, so it won't be any special case when a nation goes into recession.

Question
The scientific method is: a. a way of thinking that relies heavily on faith and belief. b. a deductive process based on testable and measurable events. c. a rigid process, like following a recipe exactly. d. a process that starts with a conclusion and move towards an hypothesis. e. a method that uses different steps, depending on who is using it.
Solution 1

Answer: DEDUCTIVE PROCESS BASED ON TESTABLE AND MEASURABLE EVENTS.

Explanation: Scientific method can be defined as a method of discovering knowledge about the natural world based on making falsifiable predictions (hypotheses), testing them empirically, and developing theories that match known data from repeatable physical experimentation.

Simply put, according to Options B, it is can be paraphrased as, "deductive process based on testable and measurable events".

Solution 2

Answer: The Scientific method is a deductive process based on testable and measurable event.

Therefore the answer is option b

Explanation: The scientific method are those emperical method scientist apply to prove it's test or observation, so as to determine factors and variables involved in an observation, and arrive to a conclusion. A scientist must have a testable and measurable process which lead him to a conclusion. Scientific method believe in experimental method, which does not have the same procedure for all experiment, Science does not have a rigid process. For example, one may decide to use filtration method to purify water, another may decide to use evaporation method to purify water. Which means scientific method for a process change and improve, as science expand.

Geometric optics is the part of Physics responsible for the study of light and the phenomena associated with it, considering that its propagation occurs through light rays.

So it is with astronomy and its elliptical orbits and with mechanics and its vectors. It is also so in the study of the properties and behaviors of light, in the field of physics that we call geometric optics.

Question
A young child uses the words "feet" and "foots" interchangeably, seemingly unaware of a difference between the two words. Educational researchers use theory to explain a child's language development. Theories are useful to researchers and educators because they help us _____________.
Solution 1

Question Options:

1) form values and opinions about a child's behaviour.

2) explain a body of data and make predictions about future behaviour.

3) prove our hunches without having to take the time to engage in collecting data

4) show that a child's behaviour is so complex that it is impossible to predict a child's behaviour.

Answer: EXPLAIN A BODY OF DATA AND MAKE PREDICTIONS ABOUT FUTURE BEHAVIOUR.

Explanation: A theory is a unified statement or set of ideas that explains observed facts or phenomena and correctly predicts new facts or phenomena not previously observed.

Theories are used to make predictions in the sense that ideas in a theory are proven and tested to be correct, in that way, future can be predicted based on a previous similar observation.
