behavior? An article reported that in a random sample of 112
kissing couples, both people in 70 of the couples tended to lean
more to the right than to the left. (Use α = 0.05.)
(a) If 2/3 of all kissing couples exhibit this right-leaning
behavior, what is the probability that the number in a sample...

Is it possible for corporations to have religious beliefs, or
can only human beings have such beliefs? If corporations can be
said to have religious beliefs, are those beliefs the same as the
beliefs of the owners? What if there is not a single owner, but a
number of different stockholders? What about the religious beliefs
of the managers or employees—are they relevant to determining what
the corporation believes?
Socrates believed that human beings have a non-material dimension
to them ( the human psyche), which gives them the ability to
escsape the limits of human emotion and social programming, and
gives them the power to catch at least a “glimpse” of THE TRUTH.
Socrates makes no “argument” that the psyche (often translated as

Why would organisms lose obviously advantageous traits? For
example, primates have a greatly reduced olfactory system compared
to their ancient ancestors, even though a keen sense of smell is an
obviously advantageous trait under almost any condition. Why would
evolutionary processes select against such traits? Why would we not
retain them even if they were not absolutely necessary for our
survival?
How is behaviour affected by evolutionary processes? Can
behaviour still be subject to natural selection if it...
