The correct answer is D.

When a market is in equilibrium and suddenly the product (potatoes) becomes scarcer, this means that the amount supplied has decreased and therefore the producer cannot serve the same level of demand as before. Therefore, <u>the price will increase until the quantity demanded equals the new amount supplied</u>, as less consumers will be willing to purchase the product as prices become higher.

kow [346]

The correct answer is C. Build schools and universities accesible to the middle class.

Promoting education was a revolutionary principle and in his regime Napoleon tried to create a centralised system. Napoleon said: "Public education should be the first object of this government". On May 1, 1802, a decree established a new system of education. Elementary schools became responsability of local municipalities. Although church schools would share some control over elementary education, since this reform, lycees or schools where in charge of the administration of the learning programs in France. Before, education was in charge of the catholic church, thus preventing middle class citizens from receiving a good instruction. The system had two clear intentons: to train an elite class and to provide instruction for a enlarged middle-class. This was the base for the future leaders, bureaucrats and militaries. At a meeting in 1807, Napoleon declared: "Of all our institutions public education is the most important". In 1808, the Imperial University was given the power to control private schools. The state took control over the educational system, evaluating teachers, monitoring the functioning of schools and improving curriculum issues.

How did the works of jan van eyck and rembrandt reflect a human-centered naturalism?
marshall27 [118]
Human-centred naturalism is the idea that individuals and everyday life are effective and convivial vehicles for artistic expression; in particular, both Flemish painters portrayed figures in visceral poses, conveying raw human emotion through the use of a rich, deep palette with highly contrasting colors. They were both noted in Renaissance art and painted in unique manners, which are noted throughout art history as being "masterful" works of art.
