Answer:
A leader
Explanation:
A leader is an individual who influences people towards the achievement of a set goal, he/she has the capacity of instigating motivation on his/her subordinates and who can motivate his subordinates towards meeting organizational goals, targets and deadlines.
While servant leadership can be connected to biblical principles and Christianity, it is not exclusively tied to it. In what ways do the principles of servant leadership cross religious and cultural lines? Justify your opinions by providing specific examples and supporting citations from "Craig St. John – Topic 1: Transcending Boundaries" and other topic study materials. Provide in-text citations and corresponding references.
As we do not have access to this text, we cannot provide examples, citations or references of this text. However, we are able to look at what servant leadership is and how it is exercised in the world.
Servant leadership is a philosophy of leadership in which a person is considered a leader because he serves. This kind of leader puts the needs of his employees first. Moreover, his main focus is that of helping the employees thrive and develop as much as possible. According to this philosophy, instead of the people working to serve the leader, the leader exists to serve the people.
When a given bond's price increases, we know that the interest rate on this bond: Select one: a. remains unchanged. b. must increase. c. must decrease. d. could increase, decrease, or remain unchanged.
Answer:
c. must decrease.
Explanation:
Bond and interest rates are inversely proportional. This simply means that, when the price of bond rises, the interest rates falls, and when the price of bond falls, the interest rates rises.
For example:
Hypothetically, you bought a bond at a price of $100 with an annual fixed interest rates of 4% for 4years which will be $4 per year. After a year, the same amount of bonds in the market, has a 5% annual increase. However, you don't want to wait till maturity, and you intend to sell your bond.
Your bond compared to other bonds in the market goes thus:
Your bond at $100 with interest rates of $4 per year for the next three years will equal to $12 of interest at maturity stage.
While others bonds of the same price with $5 interest rate annually will equal $15 of interest at maturity stage.
Therefore, no reasonable buyer will buy your bond at such interest rates. So to find a buyer, your bond price will have to be reduced to $97 at $4 annual interest rates.
Therefore, for the buyer, he will make ($4 x 3) which is for three years interest and it will be equal to $12, then plus additional $3 when the bond matures, which now equals $15, will then equates to the same amount of interest yield compared to other bonds of $100 at 5% annual interest rate for 3 years.
Answer: The most correct option is option c. The interest rate must decrease.
Explanation:. Bond price is a form of loan price, which is the present value of a future value. These are given to individuals or group by the governments or corporations when they want to increase money.
When you buy a bond, it means that you gave a loan to the person that sold the bond to you, and the face value of this loan will be paid in a specific time, with an interest.
When the bond price increase, it means that the yield of the bond has also increased, that means people are now buying the bond more, the interest of such bond will drop, to reduce the money been circulated. These bond price is used to control the flow of money in the economy.

Which of the following is a difference between structured interviews and unstructured interviews? a. Unlike structured interviews, unstructured interviews involve trained interviewers. b. Unlike structured interviews, unstructured interviews involve asking the same questions for all candidates. c. Unlike structured interviews, unstructured interviews have acceptable reliability and validity. d. Unlike structured interviews, unstructured interviews have no established scoring key.
Answer:
d. Unlike structured interviews, unstructured interviews have no established scoring key.
Explanation:
Structured Interviews have a pre - decided uniform set of questions to be asked by all the interviewees and all of them marked on that standardised score key.
Unstructured Interviews don't have a pre decided uniform set of questions , is more like a detailed conversation between interviewer & interviewee. And interviewees are marked on over all personality aspects of interviewee.
So, Unlike structured interviews, unstructured interviews have no established scoring key.
Answer:
The correct answer is letter "D": Unlike structured interviews, unstructured interviews have no established scoring key.
Explanation:
Structured interviews are based on a set of fixed questions that are asked in the same order to different interviewees. Those questions are closed because a fixed answer is expected. Structured interviews are unflexible having set score interviewees can get based on their answers.
Unstructured interviews require an interviewer to make questions that could arise as part of the interaction with the interviewee. The questions are open and allow interviewers to collect details on the topics being treated. These interviews are flexible but they do not have an established rating.
Prior to beginning any study, Professor Cleutter’s research team carefully explains the research to potential participants, answers questions, and helps them to determine if the study is right for them. Professor Cleutter and his team are showing respect for participants' ______.
Answer:
autonomy
Explanation:
Autonomy refers to one's(participants) freedom to decide what to do in a research . Even when a participant may have signed the informed consent form, they must be made aware and it must be possible and "free" for them to still be able to withdraw from the research study at any time, without giving a reason. Professor Cleutter demonstrates from the above the need to properly inform the participants about the research and allow them make informed decisions.
Answer:
Autonomy
Explanation:
Autonomy is the right a group, an individual or a country to be independent. It is their right to free decision making. In research, every participant has the right to opt-in or opt-out of the research.
Professor Cleutter’s research team out of respect for the participants' autonomy gives details of the study. This act will help identify who is fit for the research. It will also save Professor Cleutter’s research team the stress of having to lose a participant in the middle of a research work
Which law prohibits a former employee who served in certain positions on a contract in excess of $10 million from receiving compensation as an employee or consultant from that contractor for one year?
A) Federal Sentencing Guidelines for Organizations
B) Procurement Integrity Act
C) Sarbanes-Oxley Act
D) Federal Contract Protection Act
Answer:
B) Procurement Integrity Act.
Explanation:
Government staff participating in the procurement and acquisition process have a significant role to play in protecting the quality of federal contracts and maintaining fair representation of bidders and contractors. The Procurement Integrity Act forbids the disclosure of information on supplier collection and contractor contracts or proposals. In fact, a former employee who has served in other capacities on a project or contract worth more than $10 million is barred from accepting benefits as an employee or supplier from the provider for a duration worth one year.
Outside the walls of Union Carbide’s Bhopal plant could be found _______ Select one: a. new roads and utilities b. the smell of methyl isocyanate c. crowded squatters’ dwellings d. a small military base
Answer: The answer is B). The smell of methyl isocyanate
Explanation: Union Carbide has a plant in Bhopal, India. They are known to produce pesticides. One of the biggest industrial accident happened there when they release approximately 40 tonnes of toxic methyl isocyanate (MIC) gas, exposing more than 500,000 people to toxic gases. It leads to thousands of deaths.
Answer: b. the smell of methyl isocyanate
Explanation: The smell of methyl isocyanate outside of the walls of the Union Carbide Bhopal plant was as a result of the disaster that occurred on December 3, 1984, where more than 40 tons of methyl isocyanate gas was leaked from the pesticide plant. This immediately killing at least 3,800 people, causing significant morbidity and premature death thousands more. While the disaster indicated a need for enforceable international standards for environmental safety, the events in Bhopal revealed that expanding industrialization in developing countries such as India, without a simultaneous evolution in safety regulations could have catastrophic consequences.

Bob is a merchant in New York and Betty is a merchant in California. Bob wants to do business with Betty but he is concerned that if a lawsuit should result from their transaction, he might have to travel to California and hire a California litigation lawyer to litigate the dispute. What type of clause should Bob try to indlude in his contract with Betty that will probably assure him that if litigation ensues, it will take place in New York?
A. Confession of judgment clause
B. Forum selection clause
C. Choice of law clause
D. Substantive clause
Answer:
The correct answer is letter "B": Forum selection clause.
Explanation:
A forum selection clause is a provision stated in a contract by which both parties agree that in front of litigation only a specific forum will be selected. This clause is enforceable unless the party unwilling to accept the provision proves it is unreasonable because of a determined circumstance. In case the parties decide not to litigate, this clause encourages settlement in a selected forum.
Final answer:
Bob should include a forum selection clause in his contract with Betty to ensure litigation takes place in New York, preventing forum shopping and designating the location for legal disputes.
Explanation:
Bob should try to include a forum selection clause in his contract with Betty. This type of clause designates a specific court to have jurisdiction over any legal disputes that arise from the contract. The selected forum is typically a preferred location that is convenient for one or both of the parties and by including this clause in the contract, Bob would likely ensure that any litigation takes place in New York. It is an effective tool to prevent what is known as "forum shopping," where a party tries to have their case heard in a court they believe will be more favorable to them. It is important to note, however, that forum selection clauses need to be reasonable and not contrive public policy or statutory requirements, as each state has the power to set its legal standards and a clause cannot violate these.
Lalita, age four, has tried unsuccessfully to be the director of house play on several occasions. Ms. Kurzhals usually dismissed children to free choice activities for the story time by name. She has noticed Lalitas attempts and is considering what might be effective in supporting her. What do you think she should try first?
a. Change the materials that are available for free play.
b. Explain the importance of taking turns to the children during the story time.
c. Dismiss Lalita ahead of her usual playmates for a few days so that she can arrive at the pretend play area first.
d. Direct the players to allow Lalita to determine the narrative of the play from outside the play frame.
Answer:
(C) Dismiss Lalita ahead of her usual playmates for a few days so that she can arrive at the pretend play area first.
EXPLANATION:
It is ideal to dismiss Lalita ahead of her regular playmates for a couple of days, so she can get to the imaginary play area first. This would be effective in supporting Lalita become the director of the play house through constant practice within those days.
To assist Lalita in her attempts to direct house play, Ms. Kurzhals should explain the importance of taking turns to all children, fostering an empathetic and inclusive environment that supports Lalita and the entire class socially.
Explanation:To support Lalita in becoming the director of house play effectively, Ms. Kurzhals should consider option (b) Explain the importance of taking turns to the children during story time. This approach fosters a classroom environment where empathy, understanding of others' perspectives, and social skills like turn-taking are emphasized. These are crucial aspects of a child's social development and can help children understand why Lalita, or any child, should be given the chance to lead play activities.
By discussing the concept of taking turns, Ms. Kurzhals can help all children, including Lalita, feel more included and valued, thus supporting Lalita's attempts in a way that benefits the entire class. This method also aligns with the developmental understanding that children around the age of four are beginning to grasp the idea that different people can have different viewpoints. This foundational skill in social cognition is essential for effective cooperative play and leadership in group settings.

Air can be heated in many different ways. At night, if air moves up one side of a mountain range such as the Sierra Nevada, raining or snowing on the way, and then down the other side, the air is hotter after moving over than it was before. What is the main reason, as discussed in the class materials?
Answer: Condensation of water vapor to form clouds and rain releases heat that was stored when the water evaporated.
Explanation: Condensation mostly occurs in the atmosphere when warm air rises, cools and looses its capacity to hold water vapor. The gaseous water molecules release energy into the cooler air around them and move closer together. The spaces between the molecules decrease until they are close enough to change form from a gas to a liquid. Therefore, forming the cloud and rain would release the heat that was stored when the water evaporated.
Derive the relationship between evolutionary substitution rate (at the population level) and mutation rate of individuals when genetic drift and mutation are the only mechanism of evolution operating. Then comment on how population size affects the generation and maintenance of genetic diversity under this model of drift/mutation balance
Answer&Explanation:
Mutation refers to a chance in an organism's DNA, this means a change in hereditary traits of that's organism.
This change in DNA will change how an organism behaves,looks like and it's physiology. This mean an overall life of that organism changes , this makes mutation a huge crucial aspect of evolution, because it is the major aspect that result to genetic variation and changes in organisms.
how population size affects the generation and maintenance of genetic diversity under this model of drift/mutation balance?
Genetic drift reduces genetic variation in a population. This is because genetic drift causes changes in how frequent certain alleles are which occurs just randomly , this is very likely to have a major affect in a small population but not much in a large population.
Gene mutations are sudden changes that occur in genes, that is, it is the process by which a gene undergoes a structural change. Mutations are distinguished from aberrations in that they are changes at the point level, involving the elimination or replacement of one or a few nucleotides in the DNA strand.
The addition or subtraction of bases alters the genetic code, defined by the sequence of three adjacent bases in the mRNA, and consequently it can change the type of amino acid included in the protein chain and, ultimately, it can change the phenotypic expression.
The replacement of a purine (adenine and guanine) with another purine, or a pyrimidine (cytosine and thymine) with another pyrimidine is called a transition. The replacement of a purine with a pyrimidine, or vice versa, is called transversion.
The genetic derivative is one of the basic mechanisms of evolution, associated with natural selection, activated and mutated. This mechanism, especially important in small threats, can be defined as a change in allele frequencies that occurs in a totally random manner. Although it also uses the genetic makeup of a population, it can differentiate natural selection by not producing adaptations
In the case of natural selection, the gene that passes on to the next generation is the one that provided a better adaptation to the environment. In genetic drift, the gene that passed on to the next generation was the one that was most “lucky”.
Chapter 12 notes that researchers such as Kahneman and Tversky are pessimistic about our decision-making skills, whereas researchers such as Gigerenzer are more optimistic. The optimists emphasize that
Answer:
"the pessimists underestimate our decision-making accuracy because of factors such as choosing questions that contradict people's schemas"
Explanation:
Thaler is together with Daniel Khaneman one of the parents of behavioral economics. This branch focuses on explaining and even looking for meaning in our economic behavior. In other words, why we make the decisions we make regarding our money.
In many social sciences, two different points of view about our rationality coexist today: the pessimist, who sees our limitations as systematic errors at the root of our possible irrational behavior; and the optimist, who conceives these limits as ecological advantages. The first point of view, the pessimist, is maintained by Tversky and Kahneman in their research program on heuristics and biases, and is also based on the theory of "little shoves" or nudges, which Thaler and Sunstein propose following that approach of Tversky and Kahneman.
The second, the optimist, has been developed by Gerd Gigerenzer and the Center for Adaptive Behavior and Cognition (ABC) at the Max Planck Institute for Human Development, and by other evolutionary psychologists such as Leda Cosmides and John Tooby.

Because every other office is occupied, it’s recommended that we should convert Dr. Blake’s officeinto a lounge
Answer:
The correct answer is letter "A": Because every other office is filled, we should convert Dr. Blake’s office into a lounge.
Explanation:
Business writing requires messages to be delivered objectively and clearly. Conciseness is always pursued in such scenarios because in most cases important information is reported to managers who need to make decisions based on the input received, thus, they cannot waste time trying to understand what the person delivering the message is attempting to manifest.
Flabby expressions, fillers, redundancies, and hidden verbs must be avoided. In the excerpt:
"...Because each and every one of the other offices is fully occupied, it is recommended that we convert Dr. Blake’s office into a lounge...";
is unnecessarily wordy. It could be transformed into:
Because every other office is filled, we should convert Dr. Blake’s office into a lounge.

Explanation: a romantic relationship is one that is a striking or pulling attraction you have to another person. There is emotion, sexual and physical pull(attraction) between two people that are romantically linked. They fell each other's pain and joy and also what to be around each other all the time. This type of romance is common among young adults. Most people in romantic relationship help each other to grow or succeed. They form an attachment that is not easily broken.
Final answer:
Rick and Jana's relationship, which is marked by strong attraction, admiration, emotional closeness but without a readiness to settle down, is an example of romantic love, defined by passion and intimacy, but no commitment.
Explanation:
According to the triangular theory of love by Sternberg, a relationship that displays strong attraction, admiration, and emotional closeness, without a readiness to settle down or commit, fits the definition of romantic love. This type of love is characterized by having both passion and intimacy, but it lacks commitment. In contrast to romantic love, companionate love includes intimacy and commitment but no passion, fatuous love consists of passion and commitment without intimacy, and empty love has commitment alone without intimacy or passion.

The airlines base the policy on the assumption that Group of answer choices
Answer:
The airlines base the policy on the assumption that the consumer demand is less elastic as time of departure approaches.
Explanation:
Price Elasticity of Demand refers to price sensitivity; i.e. the rate at price changes with demand.
As the purchase and flight departure gets smaller, the arrival rate of the passengers will definitely change.
When the demand of a commodity is less elastic, then it will cause a large changes in price of that commodity to effect a change in quantity consumed.
Final answer:
The airlines' pricing strategy is based on the assumption that last-minute buyers are less sensitive to price changes. Price elasticity of demand indicates that consumers have more options over time, thus price sensitivity increases as the departure date approaches. Factors affecting airline ticket prices include demand, jet fuel costs, and airlines' market strategy.
Explanation:
The airlines assume that as the amount of time between purchasing a ticket and the flight departure decreases, consumers who buy tickets are doing so out of urgency and are therefore less price-sensitive. This concept is tied to price elasticity of demand, which suggests that demand becomes more elastic over time; consumers have more time to explore alternatives if they perceive the initial offering to be too expensive.
Several factors can drive the increase in airline ticket prices, such as a surge in travel demand during holidays, hikes in jet fuel prices, or airlines testing the market for price tolerance. A rise in the cost of airline tickets may signal a shortage in available seats or express a need for consumers to economize their purchases, leading some to shift their travel plans to more affordable dates.
This concept also applies to producers who make decisions based on price signals. For example, if a farmer notices an increase in the price of a crop, this could indicate a shortage, and thus provide an incentive for the farmer to increase production.
"The higher divorce rate of couples who previously cohabited compared to those who did not can be explained by different attitudes toward marriage and divorce held by individuals in these two groups." This explanation illustrates:____________.
Answer:
Selection effect
Explanation:
The selection effect or the selection biased is the procedure of distortion in the statistical analysis. collecting in the data from the sample population. It is a threat from out of the four for validity. It shows the result of the test variables. It is a type of conversion rate. It is like collecting the data from the unrepresentative population.
Thus here the higher diverse report of the divorce of the couples. This is the explanation of the selection bias.
Couples who cohabited before marriage have a higher divorce rate due to different attitudes and less commitment to the idea of marriage compared to those who never cohabited. Cohabitation patterns can undermine marital stability, leading to higher divorce rates among these couples. Social acceptance of ending unfulfilling relationships also contributes to higher divorce rates.
Explanation:The explanation that the higher divorce rate of couples who cohabited before marriage compared to those who did not can be linked to different attitudes toward marriage and divorce illustrates the complex interplay of personal values and societal trends. Cohabitation has become more common in the US, and it has been studied extensively for its impacts on subsequent marriages. Studies, such as those by Lawrence Ganong and Marilyn Coleman, have shown that cohabitors may develop relationship patterns that later undermine marital duration, leading to a higher likelihood of divorce for these couples compared to those who never cohabited.
Additionally, cohabiters might have lower levels of commitment to the idea of marriage and thereby show a greater willingness to divorce if they become unhappy in their marriage. This is contrasted with individuals who see cohabitation as a prelude to marriage with the intent to establish a lasting relationship. Factors like financial readiness, expectations of relationship satisfaction, and the perceived stability also play roles in how relationships evolve post-cohabitation.
Significant research indicates that children from cohabiting unions face different challenges as compared to those from married unions, potentially causing lower well-being in various life aspects. With the American emphasis on romantic love and individualism, higher rates of marriage and divorce are observed, as people seek fulfilling intimate relationships while also having the societal acceptance to end those that are unfulfilling.
Dr. Perry believes that who we are is mostly a result of who our parents are rather than how they brought us up. Dr. Perry would be considered a proponent of the _______ position.

The three "scenario building" techniques that Levinger suggests can be used to create compelling and informative scenarios for the reader to visualize the conflict are:
Drawing: Creating visual representations of the conflict.Vivid Accounts: Using detailed descriptions to paint a clear picture.Metaphors/Vignettes: Utilizing symbolic language or short scenes to enhance understanding.Nonverbal communication is different from verbal communication because it is ______. Group of answer choices guided by rules continuous under our control connected to culture
Answer:
Continuous
Explanation:
Nonverbal communication is the transmission of messages through a nonverbal ways such as eye contact, facial expressions, gestures, posture and the ways in which people communicate without using language or words, either spoken or written.
They are primarily biological based
While verbal communication are primary cultural based which is the use of sounds and words to express oneself and involve using both written and spoken words.
Nonverbal communication is different from verbal communication because it is connected to culture.
Explanation:Nonverbal communication differs from verbal communication as it is connected to culture. Nonverbal cues are influential and symbolic, often being governed by cultural norms and practices. These nonverbal signs are typically expressed through body language such as facial expressions, gestures, posture, and even paralanguage which includes tone, accent, and language itself.
Expressions like a smile or a thumbs-up gesture may have different interpretations in different cultures. For example, in the U.S., a smile often signifies positivity and acceptance, but in other cultures, it is considered disrespectful. Therefore, the interpretation of nonverbal communication is greatly influenced by the cultural context within which it occurs.
Nonverbal communication is also learned through our exposure to cultural practices, and it is often subconscious, which differentiates it from verbal communication that usually requires conscious effort. Thus, while we have control over our verbal language, our body language is often less under our control as it is an inherent part of our cultural identity.
