The lack of which of the following represents scarcity? orange juice because the trucks carrying it are on strike enough workers to finish two jobs because there’s a limited supply of workers enough workers to work at night because the pay is too low grapefruit juice because very few people want to buy it

Answers

Answer:

The lack of orange juice represents scarcity.

Explanation:

This is because scarcity is the lack of product, not the lack of demand. Since there is a limited supply of workers then it is less likely to be produced in large quantities, making it scarce because there is not enough of the product to meet the demand. Furthermore, the grapefruit juice cannot be considered scarce because although there is a low demand, the product's production is not threatened in any way, so there is enough of it to satisfy the demand.

Answer:

Often, myths are based on events that actually happened. How does a story become a myth rather than history? Historians decide that the event actually could have happened that way. As people retell the story, they add extra details to make the story more impressive. Once the story becomes part of history, people decide to add parts to it. A mythologist writes a book that includes a factual description of the event.

HistoWhat happen when Japan attacked the Philippines and defeated American forces there

Answers

Answer:

The victory of Japan marked the beginning of a domination of more than three years of the Japanese Empire over the Republic of the Philippines. The Allied survivors spent all this time under a harsh treatment by the victors, which included atrocities such as the March of Death shortly after the fall of Bataan and, for many thousands, slow death in concentration camps in appalling conditions and under inhumane treatment of Japanese soldiers

Many of these prisoners were sent to Japan on "death ships" to carry out slave labor in mines and factories. The Japanese did not mark the hulls and deck of these ships with the acronym P.O.W. (Prisioners of War) that identified them in the event of an air strike, and dozens of them were sunk by Allied airplanes, killing their occupants who were traveling in crowded basements with little ventilation, no food or water, and in which many died before reach the destination.

Answer:

One historical example was Tokugawa shogunate (Edo shogunate) was an autocratic Japan under the rule of Tokugawa Ieyasu.

One fictional example is the Empire of Star Wars, under the rule of the Sith Emperor Palpatine.

Explanation:

Edo shogunate emerged in feudal Japan after a series of conflicts between clans and houses.  Tokugawa was able to seize power of the nation through cunning battle tactics and diplomacy, leading to his control of the nation.  This led the foundation for the Empire of Japan to be established later in history.

The Empire in Star Wars started a republic that fell when the cunning ruler Emperor Palpatine seized power of the senate and made the voting process completely useless.  Using his cunning and leadership ability, he controlled the entire region of the republic turned empire, leading to his ultimate control of the known galaxy.

D.) It supported Panamanian independence from Colombia.

 Panama issued a declaration of independence from Colombia with the support of the United States. The move was planned by a local political faction linked to the Panama Canal Company, a French-American company that was interested in building a waterway connecting the Atlantic and the Pacific through the isthmus of Panama. The proclamation date is November 3, 1903. The action enjoyed the tacit approval of the Theodore Roosevelt administration. It impeded an armed response from Colombia by paralizing local trains and sending a US Navy ship.
