Good afternoon!

Answer: Slavery was a point of contention in the United States since the country's founding. The disagreement intensified as the 1800s began. In 1820, the Missouri Compromise established a boundary that wouldn't allow new slave states above this line. Dred Scott had been taken by his owner to an area in which slavery had been made illegal because of the Missouri Compromise.

Have a great day!

Answer:

His travels and residences in free areas.

Explanation:

The case <em>Dred Scott v. Sanford</em> was a landmark decision of the Supreme Court. In this case, Dred Scott, an enslaved black man, sued in court for his freedom. He argued that his owners had taken him from Missouri into the Missouri Territory, which was a "free" territory. The court ruled that Scott could not sue in court as he was not considered an American citizen due to his African ancestry, regardless of whether he was a slave or not.

(20 points :) ) Which claims about the declaration of the rights of man and the declaration of independence are true? (select al
solmaris [256]

The correct answers are: the declaration of independence speaks of a divine creator and the declaration of the rights of man speaks of a supreme being. Both documents drew on the "natural law" philosophy of John Locke.

Indeed, the Declaration of independence explicitly mentions the Creator in the preamble:

“"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.”

The Declaration of the Rights of Man and the Citizen mentions the Supreme being in its preamble as well:

“In consequence whereof, the National Assembly recognises and declares, in the presence and under the auspices of the Supreme Being, the following Rights of Man and of the Citizen.”

Finally, although both documents draw on the natural law philosophy of John Locke, the American version is more traditional in that it considers that such rights are given to humans by a deity or transcendent being of the same kind while the French version is more secular.

How were the Neolithic Revolution and Industrial Revolution alike and different?
ki77a [65]
The Neolithic Revolution and Industrial Revolution had many similarities and differences. One of which they shared, being that they both saw an increase of population. Both were in separate time periods, this resulted in different inventions essential to that historical era. The Industrial Revolution brought in machines, a better work industry, and much more advanced resources for society. The Neolithic Revolution yielded farming tools and such during a time where inventions were sparse. Overall, their differences and similarities led to one another.
