Give an example of a third party. What are its viewpoints?

Answers

Answer:

In electoral politics, a third party is any party contending for votes that failed to outpoll either of its two strongest rivals (or, in the context of an impending election, is considered highly unlikely to do so). The distinction is particularly significant in two-party systems. In any case "third" is often used figuratively, as in "the third parties", where the intent, literally stated, is "the third and succeeding parties".

For instance, in the United Kingdom a third party is a national political party, other than the Conservatives and Labour, which has at least one member in the House of Commons. From 1922 to 2015, Liberal Democrats and its predecessor Liberals was the third party. Since 2015, it is used for the Scottish National Party (SNP). In Scotland, SNP has been the dominant parliamentary party beginning with the 2011 Scottish Parliament election, with the Conservative the next largest party and Labour becoming Scotland's third party ever since.

In the United States of America, there have been numerous "third parties". The largest since the mid-20th century are the Libertarian and Green Parties.

In Canada provinces such as Ontario, Prince Edward Island and Quebec, nearly 50+ active political parties exist throughout the nation with several of them both provincial and federal levels either elected, formed or joined during cross-flooring.

The term "third parties" is used mostly in countries with first-past-the-post voting systems, as those systems tend to create a two-party system, so that successful smaller parties are rare to stronger two-party systems like the United States.

Countries using proportional representation give little advantage to the largest two parties, so they tend to elect many parties. Therefore, in those countries, three, four, or more political parties are usually elected to legislatures. In such parliamentary systems, coalitions often include smaller parties; since they may participate in a coalition government, there is not a sharp distinction with a 'major' party. In two-party systems, on the other hand, only the major parties have a serious chance of forming a government. Similarly, in presidential systems, third-party candidates are rarely elected president.

In some categorizations, a party needs to have a certain level of success to be considered a third party. Smaller parties that win only a very small share of the vote and no seats in the legislature often are termed minor or fringe parties.

Explain how mutual respect for right and responsibilities by those in a relationship could sustain a positive relationship

Answers

Answer:

positive relationship develops when equality exists between two individuals.

Explanation:

Every individual has the same rights and responsibilities endowed to us. Most of the time many individuals in a relationship attempt to assert these rights without considering the rights and well-being of their partners.

For instance, the right to choose is cherished by every individual, however, the same is not respected when their partner wants to assert it.

It is important to understand that with each right one is endowed with, the same is endowed to another person. Therefore, it is important for individuals to respect the rights and responsibilities of another person.

A positive relationship develops when equality exists between two individuals. They must cherish shared decision-making and should not attempt to control one another.

To what extent is gender biologically constructed? To what extent is gender socially constructed?

Answers

Answer:

Gender refers to the characteristics of women, men, girls, and boys that are socially constructed. This includes norms, behaviors, and roles associated with being a woman, man, girl, or boy, as well as relationships with each other. As a social construct, gender varies from society to society and can change over time.

Gender is always a big topic when it comes to being socially and biologically constructed. Most people will say that you were born said gender so you have to act that way, but other people will tell you that if you wanna be a different gender, then do it. Parents are always the first to tell us that there are only two genders and that anyone who says else wise is lying.  Parents know everything right? Wrong. Most parents feed their kids lies at a young age which is why some adults act the way they do. Gender in the social part of life is practically a war especially now with the LGBTQ.

The social construction of gender is demonstrated by the fact that individuals, groups, and societies ascribe particular traits, statuses, or values to individuals purely because of their gender, yet these ascriptions differ across societies and cultures, and over time within the same society.

Name and define the four types of consumers.

Answers

Answer:

There are four main types of consumers: omnivores, carnivores, herbivores and decomposers. Herbivores are living things that only eat plants to get the food and energy they need.

Producers can make their own food and energy, but consumers are

different. Living things that have to hunt, gather and eat their food are

called consumers. Consumers have to eat to gain energy or they will die.

There are four types of consumers: omnivores, carnivores, herbivores and

decomposers.

Herbivores are living things that only eat plants to get the food and

energy they need. Animals like whales, elephants, cows, pigs, rabbits, and

horses are herbivores.

Carnivores are living things that only eat meat. Animals like owls,

tigers, sharks and cougars are carnivores. You would not catch a plant in

these animals’ mouths.

Then, we have the omnivores. Omnivores will eat both plants and

animals to get energy. Whichever food source is abundant or available is

what they will eat. Animals like the brown bear, dogs, turtles, raccoons and

even some people are omnivores.

At last, we have the decomposers. Decomposers break down dead

plant and animal material into small particles. This material puts nutrients

back into the soil to be reused. Mushrooms and earthworms are great

examples of decomposers.

Explanation:

Answer:

Consumers are omnivores, carnivores, herbivores and decomposers.

Explanation:

Herbivores - are living things that only eat plants to get the food and energy they need.

omnivores - an animal or person that eats food of both plant and animal origin.

carnivores - an animal that feeds on flesh.

decomposers - an organism, especially a soil bacterium, fungus, or invertebrate, that decomposes organic material.
