Make some inferences as to why you feel the Southern Colonies had the most slaves and why New England had the fewest (hint: cons
Fed [463]

Answer:

The Southern Colonies had fertile soil and had a flatter geography.

The New England Colonies in the North had rocky soil and had hills/mountains inland which made them more on the industry side (this is also how the Union won the Civil War later on, the North was able to manufacture things while the South had mostly agricultural plantations). There wasn't much use for slaves in a factory, and much more in the South where plantations and large farms were.

The North was very religious besides Pennsylvania where the Quakers resided.

The South barely was religious because your nearest neighbor would be a few farms over, so you don't really converse with them much.

PLEASE HELP!!!!<br><br> How can a language act as a centripetal force? Provide a real-world example
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

English in the U.S, Hindi in India, Bengali in Bangladesh, and Punjabi in Pakistan are all total different languages. I myself only know 3 Korean, English and Chinese. For example imagine I didn't know English and only Korean and traveled to the USA. It would be really hard to ask for something because I wouldn't know the language! So that is how language acts as a centripetal force.

nata0808 [166]

Answer:

1. Applying <u>the principle of original horizontality</u> -indicates that layers were repositioned from a flat-lying orientation.

2. Magma intrudes into layers of sedimentary rock and displaces them. We can deduce that the intruded magma that crystallizes is younger than the surrounding sedimentary layers by applying <u>the principle of crosscutting relationships</u>.

3. While visiting the Grand Canyon, you are amazed by the depth of layers of sedimentary rock before you, <u>the law of superposition</u>-- is evident here where progressively younger layers have formed over time and are stacked upon each other.

4. A fault cuts through layers of limestone, sandstone, and conglomerate. The surrounding layers must be <u>older</u> than the fault.

5. A mass of granite has inclusions of surrounding sandstone. The sandstone and surrounding layers show evidence of uplift over time. The granite must be <u>younger</u> than the sand deposits.
