Answer:

A. Church officials believed the theory contradicted current religious

teachings.

Explanation:

The <em>Catholic Church</em> believed that if their teaching of geocentric model, which states that <em>the Earth is in the centre of the solar system and that the whole universe revolves around it</em>, was proven false, then people would start to question the rest of the Catholic Teachings. Therefore, Church officials decided to suppress heliocentrism model to avoid such stakes.

Answer:

A.

Explanation: Galileo's heliocentric theory was controversial because the Church believed that God put the earth in the center of the solar system (instead of sun) and that it is the most important planet and other planets should go around us. Extra fact: When the Church heard about his theory he was not killed instead he had to stay at home till the end of his life if he does not take his theory back (which he did not so he stayed at home and could not go out) also, because of his theory that he wrote and everything, it was in the Churches banned books.

How did the oil embargo end up hurting OPEC? Can be multiple answers.
amid [387]

The correct answer are <em>C) Countries traded with other oil-producing nations, and D) Nations stopped building automobiles for a while. </em>

The OPEC oil embargo completely stopped the exports of oil to the United States. The decision was taken by the 12 members of OPEC on October 19, 1973, in retaliation for the U.S. decision to re-supply the Army of Israel. What happened then was that <u>oil prices quadrupled</u> in the subsequent months. The embargo ended in March 1974.

After the embargo, the United States set in motion measures to conserve and develop domestic energy sources. The government created the <u>Strategic Petroleum Reserve</u> and limited the speed in highways to 55-miles-per-hour.

Explain in English why Chile is a very diverse country
USPshnik [31]
The geography of Chile<span> is extremely diverse as the country extends from a latitude of 17° South to Cape Horn at 56° (if Chilean claims on </span>Antarctica<span> are included Chile would extend to the </span>South Pole<span>) and from the ocean on the west to </span>Andes<span> on the east. Chile is situated in southern </span>South America<span>, bordering the South </span>Pacific Ocean<span> and a small part of the South </span>Atlantic Ocean<span>. Chile's territorial shape is among the world's most unusual. From north to south, Chile extends 4,270 km (2,653 mi), and yet it only averages 177 km (110 mi) east to west. On a map, it looks like a long ribbon reaching from the middle of South America's west coast straight down to the southern tip of the continent, where it curves slightly eastward. </span>Diego Ramírez Islands<span> and </span>Cape Horn<span>, the southernmost points in the Americas, where the Pacific and Atlantic oceans turbulently meet, are Chilean territory. Chile's northern neighbors are Peru and </span>Bolivia<span>, and its border with Argentina to the east, at 5,150 km (3,200 mi), is the world's third longest.</span>
