History

Answer:

Explanation:

Scientific racism, called biological racism, is the pseudoscientific belief that empirical evidence exists to support or justify racism, racial inferiority, or racial superiority. Since enslaved people were first brought to this country, promoters of anti-Black racism and white supremacy have co-opted the authority of science to justify racial inequality. A history of pseudoscientific methods “proving” white biological superiority and flawed social studies used to show “inherent” racial characteristics still influence society today.

What were the negative and positive effects of the Panama Canal?
shusha [124]

Answer: When the Panama Canal was created by the U.S. government between 1904 and 1914, they decided to build a lock canal. And that meant that, in effect, every ship that passes through the Panama Canal goes up effectively three steps to 85 feet above sea level. There’s a large dam that blocked the original flow of the Chagres River towards the Caribbean, and then water flows through the locks with the ships. So it’s a massive lake that was created primarily to move ships through the oceans, but when they did that, of course they flooded the entire region. So the entire Chagres River valley, which was a place where there were many small Panamanian communities, was flooded. And a lot of the kind of natural history of the region was lost in the flooding of the canal as well.

Explain why sectionalism was one of the causes of the Civil War.
wolverine [178]

Given that sectionalism deals with restriction of interest to a narrow sphere; undue concern with local interests or petty distinctions at the expense of general well-being.

Also, that the south was the raciest towards people that looks different than them. Then it only stands to reason that the sectionalism was the one thing that the North did not like which led to the Civil War.
