Out of all given choices, “Relative dating depends on the use of radioactive isotopes to give exact ages of layers” the statement is not true of relative dating.

Answer: Option D

<u>Explanation: </u>

Relative dating is the determination of sequencing the events in a relative order of past with giving reference to any age information regarding the event. For example, dating with help of rock layer sequencing, using index fossils or any layer of sequenced sedimentation. Therefore, absolute or exact age determination is not an essential of relative dating.

All the other three options as given are true statements for the relative dating. The option D is incorrect statement because of the fact that relative dating does not talks about the determination of exact ages in any aspect. Like, Option A is correct as using rock layering sequence is one of the method of relative dating.

NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer and Explanation:

The legislation allowed ex-slaves to be considered American citizens and to have protection guaranteed by all laws, as well as white citizens, in addition to allowing them to have the right to vote.

Because of this, to increase the power of the black population, African Americans sought to raise representatives who could pursue their interests politically and to ensure that the rights given to them were respected. This was not an easy task and it took many years of struggle to preserve and seek more rights for blacks.

Naddika [18.5K]

The correct answer is 1) Soviet influences spread across Eastern Europe sharply during and after World War II.

It is clear that socialism in the eastern part of Europe became much more popular and at the time seen as an ideological system victorious over extreme right national socialism (under the flags of Nazi Germany, Italy). In so, the intrinsic dynamic of Soviet socialism was another form of conquest. Soviet influences expanded regaining the territories that were previously invaded by Germany or other powers (in the case of Baltic states). The reasons were not only based the military results by that time (1945-1948) but by the notion that socialism was a new and more efficient way of settling issues in the European and capitalist world, thereby causing the empathy from some neighbour states and also expanding with the introduction of "puppet states" loyal to the Soviet Union.

Examples of this were: the government created in Poland, Checoslovakia or some other socialist republics.

How did the institution of slavery continue to affect the world even after it was abolished?
alex41 [277]
Although slavery was abolished, there is still a lack or respect between races, and still a lot of racism. After slavery ended there was still segregation between the races which then resulted in the civil rights movement. The institution of slavery affects the world today, minorities are still being treated with less respect and dignity, just like how minorities were treated during the time of slavery.
