Some people believe that women suffer from gender inequality in this society because gender roles a. are applied very traditionally by some b. have not changed since the early 1800s c. are inflexible and similar in every culture d. are incapable of expressing true equality

The correct answer is letter A.

Gender roles have changed a lot throughout the years, but in some cultures they are still applied very traditionally, meaning that, even though women role is not the exact same one as it used to be in the 1800s, for example, in some countries, cultures, and some people, still see women with this antiquate view.

100 years ago, in a lot of countries, women didn't have the right to vote, their role in a family was to be a housewife, and they could never think of getting a job, for example.

Even though a lot has changed in a lot of countries, a lot of cultures and religions still don't accept these changes and there's still a lot of inequality in the world.

the correct statement is letter a.   according to the mandate of heaven, kings were considered godlike beings, so they could do as they .

the mandate of heaven is a chinese political and religious ideology used since ancient times to justify the rule of the king or emperor of china, that has been in place since the zhou until the dynasty system ended. it has been created to justify the zhou as the main power of the region. in order to keep harmony, the ruler has to make what he wants and what people want. he had to make good choices to satisfy the people and then they will be happy and keep you in power.
