In the following passage written by a conquistador in 1540, what can you infer about how sick citizens were treated? “No one who
was lazy or tried to live by the work of others was tolerated; everyone had to work. Thus on certain days each lord went to his lands and took the plow in hand and cultivated the earth, and did other things. Even the Incas themselves did this to set an example. And under their system there was none such in all the kingdom, for, if he had his health, he worked and lacked for nothing; and if he was ill, he received what he needed from the storehouses. And no rich man could deck himself out in more finery than the poor, or wear different clothing, except the rulers and the headmen, who, to maintain their dignity, were allowed great freedom and privilege.” The sick and invalid members of society were generally sacrificed to the gods.
The sick and invalid members of society were expected to contribute to the storehouses.
The sick and invalid members of society were cared for by the healthy citizens.
The sick and invalid members of society were decked out in fine jewels.
The sick and invalid members of society were cared for by the healthy citizens
Explanation:
From this passage, we get a simple very nice picture about the basics of how the Inca society worked. Everyone that was capable of working was working, and everyone was treated in the same manner, had the same rights, and the hierarchy was somewhat horizontal. The members of the society that had health problems or were disabled, thus were not able to work, were taken care by the other members of the society, and they were receiving the basic means for living for free from the storehouses.
<u><em>China financed a large new fleet sent out to trade and build contacts under the command of Zheng He.</em></u>
Answer: Option C
<u>Explanation:</u>
Ming dynasty is the one and only first Chinese dynasty that showed interest in trading with other countries. Zheng He was a great sea explorer who is also a fleet commander.
He established trades with many foreign countries. He served under the third Emperor Yongle whose reign was between 1402 to 1424. He built big ships (some families can live in) also named them as Junk to travel in the sea.
That made the Ming Dynasty earn more money. Ming Dynasty was interested only trading with Portuguese and Spain but most of the Europeans wanted to trade wit Asia for spices and teas.
When Yongle died the funding for the travel was stopped and that was the end of the Ming Dynasty's International trade through seas.
Its due to the earth has an axial tilt of 23.5 degrees which is an inclined motion, relative to the orbital plane of rotation. This is the angle of obliquity of the earth from its center.
For this reason, the earth has solstice in summer, winter, vernal and equinoxes and owning to the fact that the continents in the north have winter in the Northern hemisphere and continents in the south have summer.
Without this tilt, the earth would have climatic extremes. Day and night time of the earth are also influenced by the same rotational motion.
