Encryption is the use of code words or other things such as a different language to transmit data that is able to be understood by only those that use it. An example was during World War II, Americans in the Pacific theater fighting against the Japanese brought Navajo speaking Native Americans to transmit data to other American forces. They did this because the Navajo language was completely unknown to the Japanese and weren't able to decipher the transmissions that they intercept.

Answer:

Encryption is done by simply letter and sounds with characters or mathematical constructs to encode messages or can also be done by using unfamiliar languages. During the Boer Wars, Latin was used because they figured most South Africans would not be trained in Latin, and would therefore be unable decode Latin messages.

Brut [27]

<em>A student recorded the following observations from an experiment. Identify whether each statement is a fact or an opinion.  </em>

<em> </em>

<em>1) Petunia A is 9.0 cm tall. Fact </em>

<em>In this case, the student could measure the petunia to know the height with a meter. This fact can be supported by looking at the meter. </em>

<em>2) Petunia C is prettier than petunia D. Opinion </em>

<em>In this case, the student says that the petunia C is prettier than petunia D based in his background knowledge, his beliefs and views; everyone can have a different opinion of how a petunia looks like. </em>

<em>3) Petunia B smells bad. Fact </em>

<em>In this case, it is known that petunias are among the type of flowers that smell bad. Their smell is described sometimes as earthy smell  </em>

<em>4) The leaves on petunia C have turned yellow. Fact </em>

<em>In this case, it is a direct perception of the color what the student uses to say that the leaves on petunia c have turned yellow. </em>

<em>5) Petunia D has grown 5.0 cm in five days. Fact </em>

<em>In this case, it is easy for the student to get that fact, he only has to use his meter to know how much petunia D has grown. It is an undisputable fact supported again by the meter.  </em>

<em>6) Petunia A is too close to the light. Opinion </em>

<em>In this case, it is a personal perception that does not have to be objective; depending on the type of the experiment, it might be bad to have the petunia too close to the light. We can never know because we do not know what type of experiment he is making, and we do not know the measure to keep the petunia away from the light in an exact way. We do not know either on what basis he is supporting that fact of the petunia being too close to the light </em>

<em>7) Petunia B is 2.0 cm taller than petunia C. Fact </em>

<em>Again, the student very easily can have an objective measure using the meter to know the height of petunia B in relation to petunia C. </em>

What best describes a woman's role in Puritan Society?
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

<em><u>The correct answer is C: Respected as mothers and religious leaders</u></em>

Explanation:

In a traditional Puritan household, women were known to be submissive with the men running the household and earning an income. This submissiveness mostly came from the need to be obedient and moral.

However, women had authority within the home and were responsible for running the household.

As mothers, they made key decisions and helped to build a family system. Women also had a huge role in the Church and almost every Puritan church had female religious leaders.
