Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is C. The "Progressive Amendment" that made the federal government more democratic was the 17th Amendment, that provided for the direct election of senators.

Explanation:

The Seventeenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States establishes the direct election of the United States Senate by popular vote. The amendment replaces Article I, Section 3, Clauses 1 and 2 of the constitution, under which the Senate was elected by the State Legislatures. It also alters the method of filling vacancies in the Senate, to be consistent with the method of choice. It was adopted in April 1913 and contributed to the democratic strengthening of the country, by granting more electoral rights to its citizens.

The war of Independence of the United States was a warlike conflict that faced the Thirteen original British Colonies in North America against the Kingdom of Great Britain. It took place between 1775 and 1783, ending with the British defeat at the Battle of Yorktown and the signing of the Treaty of Paris.

Beginning in the nineteenth century, industrializing lands experienced a social change known as the demographic transition when?

natta225 [31]

Answer:

When fertility rates fell.

Explanation:

The demographic transition consists in the change of the demographic profile of the population of a city or country. Demographic transitions are usually triggered by industrialization and urbanization.

Pre-industrial, agrarian societies have a demographic profile of very high fertility rates, very high child mortality, and very low life expectancy.

In other words, in agrarian societies, women have many children, only a few of those children survive into adulthood, and because life expenctacy is low, the average person is young, and there are very few old people.

As the agrarian society becomes more industrial and more urban, women start having fewer children, and more of those children survive, because the increased wealth generated by the industrial economy allows better medical care and nutrition.

Life expectancy rises as well, leading to an general aging of society. For example, in Japan, a highly industrialized, and very urban country, the average age is 46 years.
