Answer: The flaw in Janet claim is that, her claim tends to cherry pick( selecting some parts of a complete information just to justify your statement) cluster of data based on a predetermined conclusion. She didn't want to hear the opinion of both side. She has determined a conclusion by choosing a little part of what is already know to give a summary of what is unknown. Daria may actually be the one to address her questions, because he may have read an article on minority race issue. Though Jose is Hispanic, he may not know much about the issue.

In the test of worthiness and reasonableness;

Jane's claim is worthy and reasonable because, Jose being a Hispanic is more likely to know much about the issues in minority race more than Daria who is not a person of color. Jose also fall in the category of minority race, so he should know much about that.

Janet arguments falls into the category of "THE TEXAS SHARPSHOOTER FALLACY".

Explanation: The Texas sharp shooters fallacy are those fallacy that tends to cherry pick data clusters based on a predetermined conclusion, instead of letting a full spectrum of the evidence lead them to a conclusion,

Sociologists argue that what is considered deviant varies from culture to culture. Give an example of something that might be co
Mkey [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

<u>One of the examples of behavior that would be considered deviant in one society and not in the other is the eating of certain animals. The examples are:</u>

  • Some societies in India consider the cow a sacred animal and never would consume beef.
  • Muslim societies do not eat pork meat.
  • Insects are considered a tasty snack in many countries, including Thailand, while it would be considered gross by many people from the west.
  • While some of the western European countries (like France and Belgium) have specialized butcher shops and restaurants for horse meat, eating it would most likely be considered taboo in the US or UK.
  • The most radical example is the eating of dogs, which occurs in some Asian countries, most notably China. There is even a whole festival for dog meat consumption in Yulin, and every year there are protests across the globe because of this event. Slaughtering dogs for meat consumption is prohibited in the US and plenty of other countries.

<u>With all of this, we can conclude that some food consumption can be seen as deviant in some parts of the world, while in others it is a normal occurrence and part of the every-day diet.</u>

Despite various taboos and laws, what we have to understand is that our connection to the animals is culturally constructed. The fact that people of the US feel closer to dogs, cats, and horses, but not to sheep and pigs, is not the fact supported by nature. There is nothing in nature itself and the nutrition of horses, insects, and various other species that prevents us to eat them. These deviances surrounding different meats are all culturally constructed. <u>This does not mean they are less real or that we should eat all the animals, just that we have to realize that our ways are no naturally more or less right than someone else’s.</u>

andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

GTP hydrolysis

Explanation:

GTP hydrolysis :

Dynamic insecurity results from the biochemical and auxiliary properties of the polymerizing αβ-tubulin subunits and how they interface with the small scale tubule grid. Un polymerized, GTP-bound αβ-tubulin sub units amass into microtubules, where their GTPase movement is significantly quickened.
