Every quiet method for peace hath been ineffectual. Our prayers have been rejected with disdain; and only tended to convince us,

that nothing flatters vanity, or confirms obstinacy in Kings more than repeated petitioning—and nothing hath contributed more than that very measure to make the Kings of Europe absolute." – Thomas Paine, Common Sense How did this excerpt motivate colonists to support the creation of the Declaration of Independence? By reminding them that King George is in charge By reminding them that King George refuses to respond to their requests By pointing out the important contributions they have made to Britain By pointing out times when peaceful methods have worked to resolve conflict

Answer:

<h2>"Common Sense" by Thomas Paine</h2>

This excerpt motivated colonists to support the creation of the Declaration of Independence,

By reminding them that King George refuses to respond to their requests.

Explanation:

"Common Sense" was a pamphlet written by Thomas Paine in 1776.  In it, he incited the people in the Thirteen Colonies to demand for independence from Great Britain.  In succinct and persuasive prose, initially under the cover of anonymity,  Paine pointed out both moral and political arguments to encourage the colonists to demand for independence and fight for a democratic republic.  It galvanized the American Revolution with thought-provoking sermon-like persuasions.  Before then, the colonists were trying to reconcile with Britain without success.  Thomas Paine's "Common Sense" became an eye-opener for the need to be independent of Great Britain.

Historian Gordon S. Wood described Common Sense as "the most incendiary and popular pamphlet of the entire revolutionary era."

Explain the connection between containment of communism and the interstate highway act.
aleksley [76]
Cold War concerns about the containment of communism were a priority for President Dwight Eisenhower, who had been a prominent military general before becoming president.  His concerns for increasing and strengthening America's national security gave impetus to the plan to create an interstate highway system.

Eisenhower, the former general, had seen how Germany's Autobahn system of highways had been an asset to their strength.  He came to see highways as an important part of our country's national defense.  When Eisenhower gave a speech to Congress in 1955, to promote the building of a federal highway system, he listed safety on the roads and economic advantages as strong reasons for the huge project. But he also listed a national security reason, saying:  "In case of an atomic attack on our key cities, the road net must permit quick evacuation of target areas, mobilization of defense forces and maintenance of every essential economic function. But the present system in critical areas would be the breeder of a deadly congestion within hours of an attack" (Special Message to the Congress Regarding a National Highway Program, <span>February 22, 1955).

How do ice cores, tree rings &amp; index fossils provide valuable information about the past?
Assoli18 [71]
Tree rings are annual growth rings and their thickness indicates how growing conditions were for that year. Index fossils in their type and frequency are indicative of the environment that those organisms grew in and how prolific life was then in that environment. Ice cores drilled through glaciers and ice sheets like in Antarctica tell us about such things as the concentration of greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide (as bubbles in the ice layers) and also about climatic  conditions in glacial and interglacial periods.
