as university of miami psychologists debra lieberman and adam smith pointed out in a recent article in the journal current directions in psychological science, humans have social and psychological mechanisms to deter incest. with very few exceptions, marriages between brothers and sisters and between parents and their children are verboten in every human culture. the primary psychological anti-incest mechanism is the yuck response. even the idea of sex with their mom or dad, bro or sis is upsetting to most people. the psychologist jonathan haidt has found that nearly everyone is repelled by the prospect of brother-sister sex, even in hypothetical situations in which there is no chance of pregnancy).

the biological cost of incest

this raises an interesting question: just what’s so bad about incest? sure, having sex with your dad or your sister seems gross — but why? some anthropologists have argued that incest taboos are learned social conventions. this explanation, however, doesn’t make sense to me as it does not explain the widespread existence of anti-incest mechanisms in creatures ranging from cockroaches to chimpanzees. second, the incest taboo is about as close to a universal law as human moral rules get.

why should mechanisms to avoid incest be so widespread both in nature and across human societies? the answer is simple. the problem with having sex close with relatives is that there is an astonishingly high chance that your offspring will be born with a serious birth defect.

Ineed your asap, it due a crisis erupted in the 1830s over nullification. nullification is stating that something is null and void (not valid) and is not accepted. to nullify is to refuse to recognize. with the definition of nullification above, identify the cause of the political crisis in the 1830’s and the risk it created for the nation. question 3 options: the crisis was over the power of the presidency- the congress believed that the president should not be allowed to keep the power of the veto. the risk to the country was the presidency turning into a dictatorship. the crisis was a power struggle between the states rights and power of the federal government. the risk to the country was the possibility of states seceding from the union. the crisis was over whether taxing was constitutional. the risk to the country was that the people were being taxed unfairly the crisis involved states deciding to support other countries in their civil wars. the risk to the country was that states may begin fighting with each other over their alliances.
