Answer:

The Missouri Compromise was passed into a law in 1820 and was important an important law as it led  to the American Civil War. It was formulated by Henry Clay, a senator from Kentucky and was passed into law by James Monroe in 1920. The law caused extreme tension between pro slavery and anti-slaver states as there were equal number of pro and anti slavery states. But when Missouri requested to become slave states it caused tension as it could have tip the balance towards slave states. Although Missouri compromise added Missouri as a slave state, simultaneously it added Maine as a free state. The compromise banned slavery in the Great Northern Plains of Louisiana Territory, this line came to be known s Missouri compromise line. This compromise ended with Kansas-Nebraska Act in 1854.  The southern states felt threatened with the compromise because they considered that the compromise was meant to end the slavery in southern states.

What consequences did Anne Hutchinson and Roger Williams suffer after speaking out against the beliefs of the Puritan church?
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

A). They were asked to leave the church and the Massachusetts Bay Colony.

Explanation:

Anne Hutchinson and Roger Williams were courageous Puritans who dared to disagree with the religious concepts preached in Massachusetts Bay Colony, a strictly Puritan region.

Anne Hutchinson disagreed that her behavior could change the destiny that God had prepared for her. While Roger Williams, he disagreed with the union between church and state, religious intolerance and the theft of indigenous lands.

The Puritans saw the two as major threats and wasted no time in banning them (Anne was arrested before the ban). As a result Williams bought land from the natives and formed the Rhode Island colony. Subsequently, Hutchinson joined this colony.

An example of due process of law as guaranteed by the Fifth Amendment is...
Darya [45]

<u>Answer</u>:

An example of due process of law as guaranteed by the Fifth Amendment is B: ensuring trials follow certain procedures and rules.

<u>Explanation</u>:

The “fifth amendment” creates certain rights for carrying out both civil and criminal legal proceedings. There is a due process clause in each amendment. It requires that government officials should make sure that the trials follow certain rules and regulations. The government cannot deprive any citizen of his freedom, property or life as these are his basic rights.

So, correct option is option B. Option A is incorrect as it doesn’t mean that witness can be called and questioned. Neither does it mean owning guns and weapons, option C. Option D, having reasonable suspicion that someone is guilty is incorrect as well.
