Answer:  The correct answer is:  In ancient Babylon, fingerprints were pressed on clay tablets to mark contracts. The oldest documents known as such where fingerprints are shown date from China in the third century B.C.  Sir William Herschel began collecting fingerprints in 1856 and noted that they were not altered with age. In 1888 Sir Francis Galton together with Sir Edmund Richard Henry developed the fingerprint classification system and this system is still used in the United States. Identification by fingerprints is very reliable.

What are the black codes
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

The Black Codes, sometimes called Black Laws, were laws governing the conduct of African Americans (free blacks). The best known of them were passed in 1865 and 1866 by Southern states, after the American Civil War, in order to restrict African Americans' freedom, and to compel them to work for low wages. However, Black Codes existed before the Civil War, and many Northern states had them. In 1832, "in most of the United States, there is a distinction in respect to political privileges, between free white persons and free coloured persons of African blood; and in no part of the country do the latter, in point of fact, participate equally with the whites, in the exercise of civil and political rights."
