9.Which type of plantation work is most likely described in the above passage?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The passage describes work on the rice plantations

Explanation:

Rice had a particular way of growing and harvesting. Plantations of rice should be flooded and kept underwater for around two months, usually in June or July. It requires constant refreshing of the water and weeding of the plants during this time, which was considered to be one of the most unhealthy occupations on the southern plantations. Harvest time usually came at times of great heaths, and those who work at the plantations – in this case, slaves – have to work during the warm day in the flooded fields.

The work on rice plantations was rather deadly and the mortality of the slaves who had to work at these places was high. It is recorded that, at some plantations, more than half of the poor people who worked in the rice field would die.

All of the mentioned conditions and how rice is planted and harvested are the reason we can conclude that the passage talks about slaves forced to work in the rice plantations of the South.

Answers

Answer: Sacajawea was an important factor in the expedition

Luis and Clark met Sacajawea when she was six months pregnant.

The divide between the Eastern and Western Catholic churches deepened


The Byzantine Empire became stronger


Trade and communication (exchange of ideas) increased between the West and the East

Answers

Answer:

The Byzantine Empire became stronger.

Explanation:

The Byzantine Empire became significantly weaker (which was strongly exemplified during the sacking of Constantinople). With the failures of the Crusades, the empire's borders shrunk, and slowly it was nothing more than just it's city. However, that is not too say that the city itself had survived in it's longevity until it's fall to the Ottoman Empire in the Siege of Constantinople.

Answer:

The Byzantine Empire became stronger was not an impact of the crusades.

Explanation:

Through process of elimination i was able to deduce that A,B, and D were not the correct answers and that the Byzantine Empire were made significantly weaker due to their failures during the Crusades.

How do you identify a crime scene?

Inspect the area for anything that might be used as evidence, such as stains, marks, or other markings. Since every crime scene is three dimensional, don't forget to look up as well. Shining a flashlight at an oblique angle on the ground is another method you can use to help you find evidence.

Fill paper bindles with tiny glass pieces, then place the bindles in coin envelopes, pill boxes, or film cans that can be marked and completely sealed. Put large glass pieces in containers. To avoid breakage and damaged edges during shipping, separate individual pieces with cotton or tissue. The container holding them is marked and sealed.

Write an essay that analyzes how a text explains the sequence of events that affected the discovery of the Rosetta stone. PLEASE make a NEW ONE, I submitted one from another person asking this and apparently it was taken from a website so someone please make a brand new one!

Answers

The Rosetta stone is the code that revealed the mystery of Egyptian hieroglyphics allowing to the archeologist and to the scholars to read and interpreting inscriptions and reliefs like texts and tombs in a modern understanding. Thomas Young has shown first, then the French scholar Jean-François Champollion that provide the foundations of many information on the ancient Egyptian culture. Finally in 1799, soldiers of Napoleon’s army found the Rosetta stone near the town of el-Rashid (Rosetta). Later, the stone became British property after  the Treaty of Alexandria (1801) and  has been presented in the British Museum since 1802. Further more. The Rosetta Stone is a granodiorite stone inscription discovered in 1799. This inscription has three versions of an edict issued in Memphis, Egypt in 196 BC during the Ptolemaic dynasty in the name of King Ptolemaios V. The proclamation text at the top and middle of the inscription was written in Ancient Egyptian with hieroglyphic and demotic characters, while the lower part is written in Ancient Greek. Because the differences in the three versions of this edict were not many, the Rosetta Stone was the key to the translation of Egyptian hieroglyphics, which in turn broadened insights into ancient Egyptian history.
