1. Survival of the fittest refers to a theory of evolution by Charles Darwin. According to this theory, the most healthy or well adapted organisms have higher reproductive success in order to pass on their genes. On the other hand, weaker and less well adapted organisms have less reproductive success and as result are likely to become extinct. According to this theory, wealth is in the hands of few due to economic competition in society. Wealth ends up being in the hands of those who successfully grow their own wealth in the first place.

2. Andrew Carnegie is best known worldwide as a big steel tycoon in the 20th Century. His theory called 'The Gospel of Wealth' is highly popular. According to Carnegie, wealthy individuals should not: pass on their fortune to their children and should not hoard their wealth and finally give it up at the time of their death.

3. According to Carnegie, a rich person should be selfless and generous with his wealth and fortune and use it to better the life of his own community. Rather than hoarding  money or spending it solely on family members, wealthy people should spend their wealth in a philanthropic way in order to improve the lifestyle of communities.

What conclusion can you draw from the fact that Spanish and Portuguese are the most commonly spoken languages in Latin America?
Sergio [31]

The correct answer is  C) Spain and Portugal colonized Latin American nations during the 15th and 16th centuries.

At the arrival of the Iberian conqueror, Latin America was not empty. In 1500 the indigenous population was more than 100 million (by 1810 this had diminished to 10 million "by means of civilization") and its level of development was greatly varied: some were living as tribal people; others, as the “Quechuas”, the “Aymaras”, the “Mayas” or the “Aztecas” had constituted high civilizations. During the colonial period, the domination was centered around the Spanish or Portuguese metropolis, coexisting with the local, almost absolute power, of the agent or the landowner. The encounters of the Spanish and Portuguese with the indigenous peoples of Central and South America in the early sixteenth century were to establish a pattern of conquest and subjugation which would persist throughout the colonial period.

Classify the most significant contributions of the two major Indian empires to world culture
il63 [147K]

Answer:

the most important thing that india brought to the world was religion

Explanation:

India is the birthplace of the so-called Dharmic religions: Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism and Sikhism. At present, Hinduism and Buddhism are, respectively, the fourth and second most practiced religion in the world, having between them about 2400 million followers in the whole planet.

India is one of the countries with the greatest religious diversity in the world, with one of the most deeply religious societies and cultures. Religion plays a central and definitive role in the life of the nation and many of its people.

Hinduism, which is the religion of more than 80.4% of the country's population, is considered the oldest religious and philosophical system in the world. Islam is practiced by about 13.4% of the Indian population. Sikhism, Buddhism and Jainism are systems of great influence, not only in India, but throughout the world. Christianity, Zoroastrianism, Judaism and Bajaism also have influence, but they have a much lower number of followers. Despite the great importance of religion in Indian life, atheism and agnosticism also have a visible influence.
