The excerpt is taken from Patrick Henry's famous "Give me liberty or give me death" speech at the Second Virginia Convention in

1775. Which sentence in the excerpt suggests that Patrick Henry believed the resources available to the colonists were adequate to engage in armed resistance against Britain?
1. Shall we acquire the means of effectual resistance by lying supinely on our backs and hugging the delusive phantom of hope, until our enemies shall have bound us hand and foot?

2. Sir, we are not weak if we make a proper use of those means which the God of nature hath placed in our power.

3. There is a just God who presides over the destinies of nations, and who will raise up friends to fight our battles for us.

4. The battle, sir, is not to the strong alone; it is to the vigilant, the active, the brave.

5. If we were base enough to desire it, it is now too late to retire from the contest.

The sentence in the above excerpt which suggests that Patrick Henry believed the resources available to the colonists were adequate to engage in armed resistance against Britain is:

"Sir, we are not weak if we make a proper use of those means which the God of nature hath placed in our power."

The correct option is 2.

Patrick Henry in his famous speech “Give me liberty, or give me death!” says that there lies a correct time to attain peace. He uses his power of persuasion to keep his thoughts before people. According to him, he would rather opt for death than to be a slave of any other people. He adds that his freedom can never be counted on materialistic terms. No one has the right to buy anyone's freedom. He can either opt for war or die in order to attain freedom. He asks his people to unite so that they can resist over the suppression they have been facing by the colonists. He adds that for resisting they have enough of the resources available by which they can attain freedom from slavery.

Sentence two seems like the correct answer, as it is talking the most about resources than any other sentence specified. 

Please tell me if I'm wrong. :)

What does Hale want to achieve by asking John Proctor to recite the 10 Commandments?
liberstina [14]
Hale wants John to prove his Christianity, and his loyalty to God. In a chaotic time, driven by the hysteria of witchcraft, Hale and the court want to eliminate those reached out to by the Devil. However, as John has not been to Church for a long period of time, he evidently cannot name all 10, and falls on 'Thou shall not commit Adultery'- ironic, as he broke this very commandment.

When I opened the refrigerator to get some food, my dog Jasmine would come to the kitchen and I would give her a snack. After a
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

A Conditioned stimulus.

Explanation:

'A Conditioned stimulus' is elucidated as the stimulus that was previously neutral eventually leads to evoke a learned response with training. Such a stimulus is contradictory to unconditioned or naturally occurring stimulus which triggers a specific response naturally while the former elicits a response through learning from the various factors.

As per the question, the 'opening of refrigerator' exemplifies a 'conditioned stimulus' as it evokes a learned response from the 'dog' as it runs to the kitchen every time 'refrigerator is opened'. Therefore, 'it demonstrates a conditioned stimulus' as Jasmine learns with time that 'every time the door is opened, he gets some food'.

What personality trait most likely leads to victor's downfall
postnew [5]
I believe that the most fitting answer for this question would be Victor's curiosity and thirst for knowledge. Although this is typically seen as a positive characteristic, it ends up consuming Victor and contributing to his downfall. It leads to him creating his monster, which ultimately destroys him in the end. Hope this helps.
