D. conflict crime

Answers

Answer:

A. Many crimes go unreported, often due to victims' fear, shame, or distrust of the police. A. social deviation

Explanation:

The Uniform Crime Reports (UCR) of the FBI has been immensely helpful in the solving of crimes by including details of crimes that law enforcement know about thereby allowing other law enforcement agencies to make comparisons that can solve crimes.

The problem however, is that only crimes that are reported or known about, make it to the reports and with there being so many crimes that don't get reported, the UCR is an incomplete measure.

A Social deviation refers to any activity that goes against the social norms of an area be it official norms (laws) or unspoken ones. Rosa Parks went against segregation laws which were official norms so this was a case of social deviation.

The rand is the official currency of South Africa.

3.- If the government decides to weaken the rand, more foreign investors could be interested in buying property and land to develop residentially centers or invest in new companies, which means the creation of jobs for South African people.

what is primary problemof heating on earth atmosphere and how would you solve this problem?

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The warming of the Earth's atmosphere is what we call global warming and the main problem this causes is completely unstable climate change across the planet. This is the main problem, because the impacts it causes are very severe and difficult to control. Climate change can cause fires, droughts and floods that can destroy regions and cause social and economic problems, limit the survival of living beings and make people homeless. Climate change can also lead to the increase and proliferation of tropical diseases that are favorable to warm temperatures. Furthermore, the melting of the polar ice caps, the loss of habitats and the loss of biodiversity are other problems caused by climate change.

The best way to solve this problem is to prevent global warming from occurring. This can be done through the use of renewable energies, reduction of fossil fuel burning, reforestation, reduction of waste generation, proper disposal of garbage, recycling, environmental preservation and reduction of toxic gases in the atmosphere.
