The Chernobyl Nuclear Disaster of 1986 took place in a city in Ukraine, approximately 400 miles southwest of Moscow, Russia. In the days and weeks after the accident, nuclear radioactivity increased in many countries, including Romania, Poland, Germany, the Czech Republic, and many other countries.
What is the BEST explanation as to why levels of radioactivity increased in areas so far from Chernobyl?
A) news media
B) food supplies
C) wind currents
D) international travelers

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Wind currents do carry radioactive materials, this is why America doesn't nuke countries like North Korea because of it's impact on allied countries such as Japan and South Korea,

Answer 2

Answer:

C. Wind currents

Explanation:

The people near Chernobyl left before the radiation spread to the town. News media does not spread radiation, it can only report it. International travelers were not permitted to go there at that time, after it exploded.  And wind can move radiation. So your answer is C.

What was the Thirteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution?

Slavery and forced labor were outlawed by the Thirteenth Amendment (Amendment XIII) of the US Constitution, with the exception of punishment for crimes. The amendment was ratified by the necessary 27 of the then-36 states on December 6, 1865, and it was declared on December 18 after being approved by the Senate on April 8, 1864, the House of Representatives on January 31, 1865, and the Senate on December 6.

Following the American Civil War, the first of three Reconstruction Amendments was passed. The Emancipation Proclamation issued by President Abraham Lincoln on January 1, 1863, declared all slaves in territories under Confederate control to be free. When they escaped to Union lines or federal soldiers (including now-former slaves) moved south, freedom happened without any recompense to the previous owners.

How does viewing Byzantine representational art as Icons/Windows change the interpretations we give them? Does that adequately account for the change in style to more simplified and non-natural forms? Or do you think that there was a loss in artistic skill after the fall of the Roman Empire? Is the Byzantine understanding of Icon helpful in understanding our obsession with art in museums, where we place singular objects against a blank white wall within temple like complexes to be revered and honored?

Answers

Answer:

Byzantine icons are religious motivated paintings.

Explanation:

Our artistic value of the icons is influenced by the religious atmosphere.

As far as I know, there hasn´t been a change in style nor a loss of artistic skill. Rather, the Byzantine art flourished after the fall of the East Roman Empire and maintained this throughout the existence of the Byzantine Empire that lasted until 1453 (Fall of Constantinople). Even nowadays the Byzantine art & icons of the Christian Ortodox countries in Eastern Europe is still very much alive.

Byzantine icons can be considered as an devotional art form where the religious person depicted in the painting is the object of worshipping, not the painting itself.

Speaking of, the striking resemblence in the worshipping of byzantine icons (religiously motivated) and modern art (culturally motivated) is hard to be overseen and sure looks like obsession.
