History

maxonik [38]3 years ago

<span>Generally, storms are primarily driven by the heat of the water vapor condensing into precipitation. Storms are triggered when a cold front, covering near-surface wind destabilizes a mass of humid, warm air and causes it to rise. The air cools and expands as it rises, increasing the humidity until the water vapor condenses into liquid water or ice crystals. The process of converting water vapor into liquid droplets or ice crystals releases latent heat into the atmosphere. Storms feed off of latent heat and this is the main reason why scientists believe that Global warming nourishes and strengthens storms. Atmospheres increasing concentration of greenhouse gasses could lead to more frequent and intense storms. The more heat energy goes in, the more strongly a weather system can churn. </span>
 Global warming is expected to cause changes in some storms - tropical storm such as typhoon could be stronger.  A study also showed that hurricanes intensify significantly faster now than they did 25 years ago.

Explain why many blacks, especially in the north, did not believe that the civil rights legislation went far enough in promoting
Pavel [41]
The main thing is that they believed that there was not enough effort to enforce the legislation that guarantees their rights.  Firstly the desegregation was not enforced and many schools, especially, in the north were really segregated.  The blacks were also paid less and did not have equal access to mortgages.

In the excerpt, Crosby makes which of the following claims about the transmission of Old World diseases to the Americas?
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is<em><u> B) It was an unintended consequence of contact between the New World and the Old World.</u></em>

Explanation:

It is widely agreed that viral diseases such as smallpox from the Old world had a fatal impact on Native populations. However, it was never a deliberate act on part of Columbus or his crew. In fact, they would have had no knowledge of how these diseases could kill so many people.

He purely describes it as an 'untended consequences of two worlds meeting for the first time and nature taking its course.

By some estimates, more than a million people died from diseases both in South and North America. Historically, this greatly helped the Spanish build their Empire in the region but, again, this was not done on purpose.
