Galileo’s The Dialogue compares Copernicus’s heliocentric theory and Ptolemy’s geocentric theory. Ptolemy believed Earth was the center of the solar system. Copernicus created a model that showed the Sun at the center of the universe. Copernicus explained that Earth, like other planets, revolves around the Sun. Galileo supported Copernicus’s theory. His views upset the Catholic Church, which supported Ptolemy’s theory. Church authorities forced Galileo to recant his statements about Copernicus’s theory. He was placed under house arrest for the rest of his life.

The purpose of Galileo was to present the scientific way that the world works, describing why the model presented by the Copernican system which was in opposition to the Church's beliefs. The society did not respond kindly, or at least the church didn't because they accused him of heresy and the book was banned.

How were state constitutions important to the writing of the United States Constitution?

MAXImum [283]

Answer:

The answer is C. The state constitutions before the US constitution made big mistakes. For example, before the US constitution, they created the Articles of confederation. It didn't have an executive branch, so they couldn't enforce/carry out laws. They didn't have a judicial branch, so they couldn't settle disputes between states. Also, they weakened the federal government by not allowing them to control taxes. The state government didn't have anyone to check on them, so they had high taxes. This caused a rebellion. This made government officials realize that they needed a stronger federal government. They then made the constitution

hoa [83]

Answer:

One line in the poem reads, “Nothing gold can stay,” meaning that all good things must come to an end. By the end of the novel, the boys apply this idea to youthful innocence, believing that they cannot remain forever unsullied by the harsh realities of life. Here, Johnny urges Ponyboy to remain gold, or innocent.

Innocence 10: Ponyboy loses his innocent, immature desire to pretend that his friends haven't died. He accepts it, losing his innocence, but not his hope. Terrible things do happen, he now understands, but they can have good effects. Ponyboy decides to try to change things, rather than hide from the truth.
