Answer:

b.Locke’s Second Treatise of Government

Explanation:

The two treaties on civil government are a work of political philosophy published anonymously in 1689 by John Locke. The first treaty is an attack on patriarchalism, and the second introduces a theory of political or civil society based on natural rights and the social contract.

What resulted from the Supreme Court’s ruling in the Scott v. Sandford case?
Mashcka [7]

Answer: A. The abolitionist movement grew stronger.

<em>Dred Scott v. Sandford (1857)</em> was a landmark decision by the United States Supreme Court. It held that black people whose ancestors were imported into the U.S., whether enslaved of free, could not be American citizens. Therefore, they could not sue in federal court. Moreover, it ruled that the federal government had no power to regulate slavery in the territories acquired after the creation of the United States.

The decision was controversial, and greatly opposed by abolitionist groups. It strengthened the abolitionist movement and may have been a catalyst for the American Civil War.

What idea from the Mayflower Compact influenced the Declaration of Independence?
Nitella [24]

Answer: Government should be for the common good, not just for a few people.

Explanation:

The Pilgrims came to America escaping from the Church of England, where access to the government was limited to a select group of people, based on wealth or lineage.

In opposition to that, the Mayflower Compact established that the American government, although not yet independent from the English crown, would be meant to represent the common good, and this idea had a strong influence in the Declaration of Independence.
