The primary reason that large numbers of people left Ireland in the 1840s and 1850s was MASS STARVATION.

Great Famine or Great Hunger was a period in Ireland where mass starvation, diseases, and emigration occurred between 1845 to 1852.

The Great Famine was caused by Phytophthora infestans, a disease that infests in potatoes. Though the potato infestation spread throughout Europe, it greatly affected Ireland, where 1/3 of its population was dependent on the potato crop as their primary source of food.

The loss of their primary source of food led to mass starvation, sickness, and eventual death. Others opted to leave Ireland and seek shelter and food in other countries to survive.

Twelve-year-old Nathaniel was having trouble solving the word problems in his math homework. His dad began reading the problems
Sonbull [250]

This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is as follows:

Twelve-year-old Nathaniel was having trouble solving the word problems in his math homework. His dad began reading the problems aloud and emphasizing the important information. As Nathaniel started catching on, his dad gradually provided less help for each new problem. This interaction illustrates:

A) Piaget's concept of concrete operational thought.

B) Erikson's concept of industry versus inferiority.

C) Vygotsky's concept of scaffolding.

D) Piaget's concept of conservation.  

Answer:

The correct answer is letter C) Vygotsky's concept of scaffolding.

Explanation:

According to Vygotsky's Zone of Proximal Development, scaffolding is the process in which a supporter helps a learner, but only to a certain extent. As the learner grows more knowledgeable, the supporter gradually withdraws his help, allowing the learner to do things on his own. Eventually, the learner becomes responsible for the outcome of his tasks. That is what Nathaniel's father is doing while helping him with his math homework. He assists Nathaniel, but slowly steps away allowing his son to solve problems on his own as he gains more knowledge.
