No,  because Elbridge Gerry, the fifth vice-president of the United States, warped around the borders of his district into such bizzare shapes that his colleagues said it resembled a salamander. Instead of a salamander however, it was called a "Gerry-mander".

Based on records from ancient Athens, each year young Athenian women collaborated to weave a new woolen robe that they used to d
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

The correct option is D

Explanation:

Option A and C makes the same mistake. The use of "woolen robe that they used" makes it seem as though the woolen robe was a tool used to help them dress their goddess so it is wrong.

While Option B addresses the issue with option A using a "with which" instead of "that", however the use of past perfect tense "had collaborated" eliminates both Option B and Option E.

Option D addresses all the problems mentioned in the other options.

If the kings in Europe did not get many Treasures why did they keep sending explorers West
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

The correct answer is C. To keep claiming land and looking for gold.

Explanation:

Although the European kings did not obtain many treasures, their main motivation for continuing to finance westward exploration was to claim new lands under their sovereignty, and to exploit the natural resources they possessed, especially gold and silver.

Thus, the Age of Discovery must be understood as framed within the economic and political process of mercantilism, through which European nations sought to conquer new lands and establish colonies there, which would allow them to accumulate wealth through the exploitation of their raw materials.
