Answer:

True

Explanation:

According to the books of Daniel, during an extravagant banquet, King Belshazzar saw a divine handwritten message ( mene, mene, tekel, upharsin ) that appeared on the plaster wall of the palace after Belshazzar desecrated the temple vessels taken from Jerusalem by his father. The written words found on the wall were translated by prophet Daniel to mean that his kingdom had been numbered, weighed, and divided ( daniel 5:25-28). The prophet Daniel analysis and interprets the written words for king Belshazzar as God's judgment on the king MENE: God has numbered the days of his kingdom and brought it to an end

TEKEL: You have been weighed on the scales and found wanting

PERES: your kingdom is divided and given to the Medes and Persians.

It came to pass that very night that his kingdom was taken by the  Medes and Persians.

Komok [63]
<span>The world controller orders the hatchery to create embryos with different intelligence levels to fit into different sections of society.

Jefferson has taken three of his clients for a round of golf at his golf club. Here they play golf, relax, and discuss topics fr
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

Jefferson faces the following potential ethical dilemmas:

  1. By taking his clients to his property he could have been perceived as trying to influence them by buying their approval with gifts and luxuries. On the other hand, by taking them to the club he can be perceived as generous and friendly, as he is inviting them to have a good time.
  2. By discussing politics with the clients, he risks them associating Jefferson’s company with a specific ideology. This could harm the reputation of the company and its products, as well as alienating potential clients who do not share that view. However, by talking about politics he can be relatable to clients' view of the world.
  3. Since this was an informal discussion, he risked providing the clients with inaccurate information about the products, as probably he did not have accurate data at hand to back up his claims. Nevertheless, informal conversations are a good way of building rapport with clients, while providing information that suits their needs in a friendly manner.
  4. By meeting the clients separately in the parking lot and customizing the prices, he risks being overheard by others, who can perceive customization as a corrupt practice. He risks the clients find out that others were offered better prices. On the other hand, the clients might feel that he had a special consideration with each of them.

Explanation:

An ethical dilemma happens when there are two distinct ways to make a decision, neither is more acceptable than the other, but by choosing one the other is transgressed. This mental experiment poses questions about how to act morally, by making the best possible decision.

katen-ka-za [31]
The most likely result is Daisy wouldn't develop deep emotional attachment with her mother.
Deep emotional attachment between parents and infant developed due to the Perception that infants have for her mother.
 If the parent spent a lot of time taking care of her infant, the infant will perceive the mother as a guardian that always take care of her and someone who could make the infant feel safe.

Andrea, a customer care executive, is able to clearly determine if her caller is a child or an adult. Which of the following dim
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

frequency

Explanation:

The frequency of the voice can tell a lot about the age of the speaker, even if we don't see them.

<u>Children tend to have a very high frequency of the voice - it is what we hear as children's high pitched or squeaky voice, which helps us distinguish it is them.</u><u> </u>

<u>Men's voices, when they speak normally, go up to 155Hz, women's up to 255Hz, but children's voices are raging between 250 Hz to 300Hz, or even higher.</u><u> </u>

<u>In most cases, children will have a higher frequency of the voice than any full-grown adult. </u>

It is also noted that even older people, as they age, have notable changes in voice. Adult men that usually have low voice frequency tend to have a higher and higher frequency of the voice as they age. Women go through a different process - they have a high frequency of the voice and during the aging process, it lowers down notably according to studies.
