Immigration was certainly a key factor in the growth of America's economy . The Industrial Revolution came with massive technological developments, and the chance to exponentially improve the production rate of factories. However, to operate these emerging industries it would take a tremendous amount of laborers. American citizens working alone, weren't going to be enough. In other words, the peak of immigration influx allowed the U.S. to take full advantage of the possibility at the right time.

Answer: Islam
Explanation:
The old Kingdom of Ghana and the Malian and Songhai empires were all located around the same area at different points in time, the Western part of Africa including Mali and the rest of the Western Sahel.
These Empires became very wealthy from the trade of gold and spice such as salt with Arabian traders and this led to alot of interactions with the latter.
As the Arabs settled and traded with these Empires, they spread the message of The Prophet and Islam spread. Indeed, it was because of the foothold that Islam gained in this kingdom that enabled it to then spread to the rest of Africa.
Here's your list:
<u>MONKS</u>;
- lived in monasteries

<u>THE POPE</u>:
-

- held the most power within the hierarchy of the church
-

Some further explanation:
The history of monasticism (the life of monks) goes back at least as far as the 3rd century of Christian history. St. Anthony was famous in those days for going out into the desert to live by himself, and others followed his example. Beginning in the 4th century, communities of monks began to form to live in community with one another in monasteries. Copying books was one of their occupations together, along with prayer and daily tasks.
The office of the pope developed out of the position of the Bishop of Rome. Over time, the Bishop of Rome asserted more and more power over other bishops in the church. Leo the Great (5th century) and Gregory the Great (end of 6th century) were two key figures in advancing the power of the "universal bishop" of Rome as leader of the whole church. The doctrine of the pope being "infallible" (unable to be in error) when speaking on matters of faith and doctrine was not officially proclaimed until the First Vatican Council in the 19th century. However, that belief about the pope's authority had developed long before that, already during the Middle Ages.

Hard to say which research organizations were specifically mentioned in the unit you took with your teacher, so we'll trust the other respondent here that says it was Harris and Gallup.
Pew is a research organization also. The Census is not -- that's a US government function conducted every 10 years.
Let me give you some detail about each of the research organizations. I'll do so in alphabetical order.
Gallup, Inc. was founded by George Gallup in New Jersey in 1935, then called The American Institute of Public Opinion. Current headquarters of the Gallup organization are in Washington, DC, with over 30 offices located around the world. Gallup says that it "delivers analytics and advice to help leaders and organizations solve their most pressing problems," and claims that it "has more data and insights on the attitudes and behaviors of employees, customers, students and citizens than any other organization in the world."
Harris Insight & Analytics, headquartered in Rochester NY, conducts The Harris Poll, which was begun in 1963. The Harris Poll describes itself (on its website) as "one of the longest running surveys in the U.S. tracking public opinion, motivations and social sentiment." The stated mission of The Harris Poll is "to reveal the authentic values of modern society to inspire leaders to create a better tomorrow."
Pew Research Center, established in 2004, is headquartered in Washington DC. The Pew Research Center describes itself as "a nonpartisan fact tank that informs the public about the issues, attitudes and trends shaping the world." Pew Research conducts "public opinion polling, demographic research, content analysis and other data-driven social science research."
