History
1 answer:
QveST [7]4 years ago
4 0

Many merchants smuggled French molasses and had never paid the duty. <span>In 1764, Parliament first tried to tax colonists. It changed the 1733 Molasses Act into a new law called the Sugar Act. This law amplified the number of customs agents. It also increased the consequences for smuggling, though it lowered the duty on molasses. By catching more smugglers, Britain helped to make merchants pay the duty. </span>

African and american indian societies tended to be matrilineal, which means people traced their heredity through their mothers.
vampirchik [111]
The correct answer is that people traced their heredity through their mothers.

In matrilinear societies, the importance of heredity is explained according to the mother or a female relative. For example, if your father comes from one state and the mother comes from another, you are a citizen of the mother's state and will be treated as such even though you might live in another state.
