Answer to Question 1

Answer: 3, 4
Explanation: Both Buddhism and Hinduism emphasize the idea of karma, in which actions of the past have consequences in the present, and actions in the present have consequences for the future. Christianity, Islam, and Judaism do not emphasize the idea of karma.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: 3
Explanation: The term Wacinko is used by both the Native American and Native Alaskan cultures. This term pertains to feelings of social withdrawal and anger in response to interpersonal disappoint and rejection. The term Windingo is used by both the Native American and Native Alaskan cultures; however, this term describes an intense urge for cannibalism with disgust for regular food. The term Latah is used by both the Asian and Pacific Islander cultures to describe a startle reaction with defensive behavior. The term Amok is also used by both the Asian and Pacific Islander cultures to describe a sudden outburst of aggression followed by apathy and withdrawal.
