Why do you think religion played such a central role in the black community?
Answer:
The majority of African Americans living in the United States during the first half of the nineteenth century were enslaved, working as forced laborers on farms in the American South and West.Although slave owners denied them their basic rights and liberties, enslaved people resisted slavery through small acts of defiance as well as large-scale uprisings.Free people of color lived in cities in the North and the Upper South. They played a prominent role in the growing abolition movement of the early nineteenth century.
Hope this helps!! ;)

Answer:
A - Galeota point B - Gulf of Paria C - Mayaro Bay E - Columbus Canal F - Montserrat Hills G - Cocos Bay I - Trinity Hills
Explanation:
On this map, we have the island of Trinidad, the one that makes up most of the territory of the nation of Trinidad and Tobago. Despite not being a large island, it has multiple different landforms that give it an interesting landscape, but also a landscape that is very useful for the development of the nation.
There are a couple of very good bays in the country, both being located in the eastern part, those two being the Mayaro Bay and Cocos Bay, excellent for seaports. The western side is dominated by the Gulf of Paria, while the southern one has the Columbus Canal that separates the island from mainland South America. There are several points on the island, with the one on its southeastern side being the Galeota Point. Despite being a small island, the relief is varied. The set of hills on the southern part are the Trinity hills, while the ones that stick out in the central part of the island are the Montserrat Hills.

How would you summarize the problem with Hawaii's food supply? What solutions are being explored? Support your response with facts and details from the Article.
Answer:
The problems with Hawaii's food supply mainly have to do with 90% of the food being imported. Should something happen to the boats, a lot of islanders would not have a way to get food and Hawaii could crumble in just 10 days.This being said, some people have found ways to get their own food should the boats not show up one day. They've learned how to spear and catch fish in order to have a good protein resource, and many villagers grow their own plants.
Explanation:
This is what I put for my answer.
2. Explain why 'recycling' is used to describe
the process of the tectonic plates.
Answer:
We use the word recycling to describe the tectonic plates process because when tectonic plates collide, parts of the continental crust goes back to the mantle.
Explanation:
When tectonic plates collide, subduction takes place. As a result, one tectonic plate with low density slides over the other with a higher density. As a consequence, parts of the plate with higher density goes back into the Earth's mantle. There, it melts and creates new crust when the seafloor expands. We can see that there is recycling in the tectonic plates process since there is a reuse of lithosphere's parts.
If the contour interval of a map is doubled, how many contour lines are needed to show the same increase in elevation?
a. half as many
b. twice as many
c. the same number
Answer:
The answer is "Option a"
Explanation:
The vertical distance or height gap between both the contour maps is now a contour interval. Its indexed outlines from each of the fifth contour maps appear clear. The height of its terrain will also increase unless the number associated with specific contour lines are increasing unless the outline interval is increased, half the number of outline lines are needed to indicate the same elevation rise.
what are the natural forces at work during a mass wasting event?
Answer:
Gravity. Finally, gravity is the driving force of mass wasting. The force of gravity pulls all things on the planet toward the center of the Earth. But unlike many of the other factors, humans have no influence or control on gravity.

Explanation:
How many hours is it between 75° W and the Prime Meridian?
Answer:
The difference between the Prime Meridian and 75 degrees West is 5 hours.
Explanation:
The world is divided by imaginary lines for the purposes and needs of humans. The vertical lines that move from one pole to another are called meridians. One of their purposes is to help in orientation with time and establishing time zones across the globe.
The Prime Meridian is the starting point that is considered as central time, with all of the time zones east of it having minus in front of them, while all of the time zones west of it have a plus in front of them. There are 360 degrees in total when it comes to meridians, and since there are 24 hours, each time zone has been set on 15 degrees difference. In this case, we have 75 degrees West, meaning that the difference between that longitude and the Prime Meridian is 5 hours (75 / 15 = 5), with plus standing in front of it, thus +5.
How do models attempt to explain land use and associated settlements?
Answer:
a model is used to simplify complex real-world situation and make them easier to explain and understand there are two main land use models that apply to urban areas in MEDCS more economically developed counties
Answer:
Land use is defined as agriculture, mining, constructing houses, streets, and other industries. The utilization of land is typically determined by climate, soil, topography which are physical factors. Another way people utilize land is with Human factors such as population, technology, and so on.

1. How does the Pampas region impact
economic development in Latin America?
Answer:
The Pampas region has a big economic impact as it is the agricultural heart of Latin America.
Explanation:
The Pampas is a region that is mostly comprised of lowlands. Naturally, it is a biome where grasses dominate. The soil is highly fertile and the region as it is is relatively large. Humans have easily seen the potential of the Pampas and spend no time converting it in an agricultural landscape.
Latin America is a region that heavily relies on agriculture, both farming and raising cattle. Large, relatively flat land with fertile soil is excellent for farming, so the Pampas has been heavily exploited for the large-scale production of agricultural goods. Also, raising cattle is among the highest in the world in Latin America and it is constantly growing as a sector, and grasslands are needed to sustain the cattle, so the Pampas again is the place to exploit for it. While this has a big and positive economic impact, the effects on the flora and fauna of the Pampas have been devastating, to say the least.
What might happen if the intrusive rock is uplifted?
Answer:
If the intrusive igneous rock is uplifted or the material around it erodes and is carried off, the igneous rock can end up on the surface of the Earth.
Just like sedimentary rocks, metamorphic rocks can be forced to the Earth's surface too.All this movement can cause rocks that were once underground to be brought up to the Earth's surface. This process is called uplift.
Stark political divisions in a country where one political party is most popular in the rural areas while another is more popular in urban and suburban areas would have what effect on the country? A. centrifugal B. centripetal C. colonial D. devolution
Answer:
This will have a centrifugal effect on a country.
Explanation:
If we have a situation where a country's population is divided because of political views, with people from rural areas supporting one, and people from urban and suburban areas supporting another one, the country will most probably experience a centrifugal effect. The centrifugal effect is a negative effect for a country because it causes division and potential break up.
In this case, it is not just that people vote for two different political parties, but the problem is that the voting is related to particular groups of people with different types of lifestyles and views in life. This always tends to cause problems, often starting with fierce debates and protests, but occasionally ending up with violence and separatism.
Describe the relation between agriculture and industries ?
Answer:
Industries and agriculture are interdependent i.e. they depend upon each other. The source of raw materials for industries comes from agriculture. For example: sugarcane for sugar industry, animal skin for leather industry, etc.
Write a report on Russia. What do you think about this country? Would you like to go there? Describe the sights of the country.
Answer:
Russia, the largest country in the world, occupies one-tenth of all the land on Earth. It spans 11 time zones across two continents (Europe and Asia) and has coasts on three oceans (the Atlantic, Pacific, and Arctic).
There are about 120 ethnic groups in Russia who speak more than a hundred languages. Roughly 80 percent of Russians trace their ancestry to the Slavs who settled in the country 1,500 years ago. Other major groups include Tatars, who came with the Mongol invaders, and Ukrainians.
Russia is known all over the world for its thinkers and artists, including writers like Leo Tolstoy and Fyodor Dostoevsky, composers such as Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, and ballet dancers including Rudolf Nureyev.
Russia's history as a democracy is short. The country's first election, in 1917, was quickly reversed by the Bolsheviks, and it wasn't until the 1991 election of Boris Yeltsin that democracy took hold.
Russia is a federation of 86 republics, provinces, territories, and districts, all controlled by the government in Moscow. The head of state is a president elected by the people. The economy is based on a vast supply of natural resources, including oil, coal, iron ore, gold, and aluminum.
The earliest human settlements in Russia arose around A.D. 500, as Scandinavians moved south to areas around the upper Volga River. These settlers mixed with Slavs from the west and built a fortress that would eventually become the Ukrainian city of Kiev.
Kiev evolved into an empire that ruled most of European Russia for 200 years, then broke up into Ukraine, Belarus, and Muscovy. Muscovy's capital, Moscow, remained a small trading post until the 13th century, when Mongol invasions in the south drove people to settle in Moscow.
Explanation:
Answer:
Russia is the largest countries in the world. Most of its part lies in Asia, but the largest part of population lies in Europe. Population is mostly consisted out of Russians, but there are also many minorities. They are mostly Orthodox Christians.
As a vast land Russia covers many region, including the region of Siberia, which I would like to visit. That vast region is practically always covered with ice and snow, but the nature is unbelievable. You can see different animals, different landscapes. In one moment you can be on the Baltic Sea and in the other on the Sea of Okhotsk. I would really like to visit it.
Explanation:
Russia has an interesting history. Since the 17th century they were major force. They fought with Napoleon, Hitler and many others. Writers like Tolstoy and Dostoyevsky are born there.
Cities such as Moscow and St. Petersburg are amazing and everyone should visit them.

Write a paragraph describing the location of the major population centers in Egypt. Make note of their proximity to physical features or other natural resources. What characteristics do these locations have in common?
Answer:
Egypt's population is highly concentrated along the Mediterranean coastline and along the Nile River.
Explanation:
Egypt is a country that has a relatively high population which is also constantly growing. When looking at the dispersal of the population in the country it is very easy to notice that it is highly concentrated in two areas while the rest of the country has very little to no population. The two areas where almost all of the population is concentrated are the Mediterranean coastline and the Nile River Valley.
The reason why the population is concentrated in these two areas is that these are the only two areas that actually provide suitable living conditions. The Mediterranean coastline has the best climate conditions in the country and the access to the sea and closeness of large economies nearby makes it easier for people to be provided with what they need. The Nile River is the only river in Egypt and its valley is the only one that provides fertile soil for agriculture, so naturally, people have settled here because it is the only area that enables the production of food and has access to water. The rest of the country is a very hot and very dry desert without water sources.

Sustainable development is a concept dealing with the use of resources to meet the needs of people now that does not jeopardize
the needs of people in the future. Which of the following is one of the ways in which people can
implement sustainable
development?
OA. building power plants using sources of renewable energy such as wind or solar power
OB. increasing the size of urban areas by expanding onto farmland
OC. expanding road systems in order to improve transportation
OD. using large amounts of water to grow crops to increase the food supply
My
Answer:
A. building power plants using sources of renewable energy such as wind or solar power
Explanation:
The resources on the planet are limited. With the growing population, technology, and development, people are using the resources more than ever before in history. Some of them can be recycled, but some are running out slowly.
Sustainable development tried to make the use of resources more rational, focusing on other sources of goods, and leaving more for future generations.
That is why using renewable energy would be a good way to add up to sustainable development.
Solar power and wind are not limited as oil and coal are, and as such make better sources of energy that can be made into electricity. We are not spending and overspending reserves we have but are instead using more natural ones that are renewable and won’t run out soon. Because of it, for future generations, it would be better if we turned to those sources of power instead of using up all the natural goods which are running out.
Why would people choose to settle near
the coast in countries like Libya,
Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia? What benefits
does this location offer to people?
PLSSS HURRY
Answer:
People choose to settle along the coast because the interior of these countries is not suitable for life.
Explanation:
The countries in Northern Africa like Libya, Morocco, Algeria, and Tunisia, have almost all of their populations settled along or very near the coastlines. There are slight variations among the population patterns in these countries, but the general rule, except in Morocco, is that the interiors have little to no population and settlements.
The reason for this is very simple, lack of living conditions in the interior. While the coastline has multiple benefits for the people, like Mediterranean climate, patches of good soil, access to sea, easy movement of goods and people, the interior is the total opposite. The inteior is a hot desert, part of the Sahara Desert. There is little to no water, no soil, no sources of food, little to no natural resources, no infrastructre, and very dangerous sandstorms.
