You can't explain behavior by merely focusing on internal characteristics of a person such as being sadistic and cruel. Such behaviors were not exactly predisposition. They were heavily influenced by external factors like commands from a legitimate power such as Adolf Hitler. The Milgram experiment was actually inspired by the harsh acts of Germans during the WWII. People can actually go to extreme lengths, even if such acts are an attack of one's personal conscience, since they believe the legitimacy of a higher power, consequently making their actions legal or morally right even when it is not.

Which is an accurate description of the Columbian Exchange?
frosja888 [35]
The Columbian Exchange was the arrival European people, plants, animals, and diseases in the Americas.  It happened when Columbus and subsequent explorers arrived in North and South America.

So, which of these options is the most similar?  It's not A, the migration to the Americas of Europeans seeking wealth and opportunity.  That came much later.  B, the movement of Native Americans to Europe after Columbus's voyage is also incorrect: they had no wish to move from their native lands.  C, the disastrous introduction of unknown species to European ecosystems, isn't right either.  Not many new species reached Europe, and they had little effect there.  The transfer of plants, animals, people, and diseases between hemispheres, D, however, is correct!  (Keep in mind that the Americas were in one hemisphere, and Europe is in the other.)

Answer: D
