During the bourbon era, the purpose of literacy tests was to limit the access of giving votes.

Option B is the correct answer.

<h3>Who were Bourbons?</h3>

Bourbons were the politicians of southern America that opposed the transformation initiated in the Reconstruction era and after the end of the Civil war.

The literacy tests were the medium used by the bourbons to analyze the ability of reading and writing of the voters. But in an actual sense, it was the barrier that had been used for discriminating the black people called African Americans and the poorer white people.

Therefore, the access to voting rights was restricted by initiating the literacy tests in the era of Bourbons.

bearhunter [10]

Answer:

Example: Galileo and Copernicus

Explanation:

Copernicus had come up with the idea of heliocentrism. Back then, everyone had believed the other planets revolved around the Earth, but Copernicus had done the math and realized the Earth and everything else revolved around the Sun. The Sun was the center of our solar system, not the Earth. But because he was accused of blasphemy from the Catholic church, he didn't share his ideas until his book published right before he died. Years later, Galileo took his idea, observed and researched, and found evidence backing Copernicus's theories. That's why today we know the truth about how the Sun is at the center of everything. Galileo built on Copernicus's discoveries and ideas, found evidence, and proved it was true.
