Full Question:
<em>Suppose it is discovered that the first zurvanites were influenced more by indian than by babylonian conceptions of cyclical time. does this discovery support the author's argument?</em>
A: The author does not claim that Zoroaster was the first to proclaim the end of history, just that this claim was one of the “most striking elements” in his teaching (lines 27-29). This discovery would not be inconsistent with the passage.
B: The author suggests that the Zurvanite conception of time as a sentient being was based in Babylonian speculations that time is cyclical, and so unending (lines 29-35). An early Zurvanite denial that history has an end (i.e., a claim that history and time do not end) would strengthen, not weaken the author’s argument.
C: The author very strongly argues that the Zurvanites committed “a deep and grievous heresy” by claiming that the two primal beings were brothers (lines 52-56). If Zoroaster himself made this claim, the Zurvanites would not in fact have “betrayed Zoroaster’s fundamental doctrine.”
D: The author does not argue that Zoroaster had no premonitory inkling of what heresies were to come. This discovery would have no effect on the author’s position.
Answer:
Yes. The author very strongly argues that the Zurvanites committed “a deep and grievous heresy” by claiming that the two primal beings were brothers (lines 52-56). If Zoroaster himself made this claim, the Zurvanites would not in fact have “betrayed Zoroaster’s fundamental doctrine.”

Angelica's decision to completely redesign Mucho Dinero's organization indicates that she believes the best approach to her firm's problems is
A. restructuring.
Explanation:
Angelica has found that the problem that riddles her company is not something from the outside that can be cured from bailing out certain elements but comes from within in that it is imbibed in their own structure as a firm.
This means that they are lacking in communication between different structures inside the company. So the restructuring of the functional structures keeping in mind communication flow can do the trick for the firm.
Answer:
On one hand, the principle of management which is being ignored in this case is that of Unity of Command.
Explanation:
The principle of Unity of Command stipulates all staff or employee, for sakes of clarity and avoidance of confusion, an abiguity, should take instructions from only one boss or line manager.
On the other hand, the principle of management that is being followed in the above case is that of Taylors Functional Foremanship.
The practice of this technique requires that planning and execution be seperated according to areas of specialisation. Specialisation is the primary logic or argument in the Taylors Functional Foremanship principle. Taylors advocates that each foreman needs to be highly proficient, possess special know-how and be capable of directing the staff with high exuberance and tact.
Cheers!
