Answer:

The correct answer is C. During the Scopes Trial, Clarence Darrow argued that science had refuted religious claims about the origin of humanity.

Explanation:

In 1925, Darrow defended John Thomas Scopes in the still famous Monkey Trial. Scopes was judged for teaching the theory of the evolution of species in a state school in Tennessee. The charge was "to teach a theory that denies the history of the Divine Creation of man as set forth in the Bible, teaching instead that man descends from a low order of animals."

The accuser and main witness was the fundamentalist William Jennings Bryan. When Darrow interrogated him, Bryan had to accept that the biblical account of creation could not be interpreted in six days as if it were 24-hour days but as six indeterminate periods of time. Darrow demonstrated to public opinion the delusion of a literal interpretation of the Bible and the need to teach scientific theories in schools. Although the judge sentenced Scopes to pay a $ 100 fine, the trial immensely discredited Bryan and fundamentalism and was a triumph for Scopes as a teacher.

I believe the correct answer is A. He determined that Scopes was within his constitutional right to free speech.  Because Clarence Darrow spoke for Scopes.

Answer:

This answer is based on opinion, so I wrote as if I agree that there should be muckrakers.

I believe muckrakers are still needed today. Historically, muckrakers created public awareness of corruption, social injustices and abuses of power.  The in depth encounter would bring national awareness to these issues, and would often bring change.  Although modern work environments follow stricter guidelines, no system is perfect, and injustices still occur.  I believe the presence of Muckrakers in would affect todays society similarly to they way they historically affected society, by leading to public outrage at hostile work experiences, and thus resulting in fairer work environments.

maria [59]

The correct answer is true.

It is true that some goods exchanged between Aksum and its trading partners included gold, ivory, cloth, spices, and even slaves.

The kingdom of Assum was located in what today is Ethiopia, Sudan Saudi Arabia, and Yemen, in Northeastern Africa, along the coast of the Red Sea. It started around 400 BCE and reached its best moment under the rule of King Ezana, who expanded Aksum territory, conquering the kingdom of Kush. Under King Ezana, the Aksum Empire became a major trade center in the region where Aksum traded gold, ivory, cloth, spices, and slaves.
