Answer:

Causes of The Mexico American war.

Explanation:

In 1836, Texas gained independence from Mexico.The United States initially declined to integrate it into the union, mainly because northern political interests were resistant to a new slave state being created. Furthermore, the Mexican government sponsored border raids and threatened that any effort to invade would lead to war.

On April 25, 1846, under General Zachary Taylor's orders, Mexican cavalry attacked a group of U.S. soldiers in the disputed area, killing around a dozen. They then laid siege along the Rio Grande to an American fort. Taylor called for reinforcements and was able to defeat the Mexicans in the battles of Palo Alto and Resaca de la Palma with the aid of superior arms and cannons.

d. it holds the cell in its proper position

The plant cell wall is one of the important parts of a plant cell. It is considered to be the protective layer or gear of a plant cell located outside the cell membrane which supports the cell's structure. It is the main factor that affects the plant's actual shape. It also helps in determining what elements can only come in the plant cell in order to control or to prevent the destruction or the damage of the cell or the plant itself. It serves as a gatekeeper or even a strainer that strains out harmful elements away from the cell.

Match each achievement to the correct scholar from the Islamic golden age. Avicenna Averroes Maimonides wrote about the ideas of

cricket20 [7]

Answer:

Avicenna > Greek philosophers & the Canon of Medicine

Averroes > ....?

Maimonides > study of the Jewish Torah

Explanation:

To start with Avicenna, he was a brilliant self-taught filosopher who admitted to have read <em>Metafysics </em>by Aristoteles a thousand times without understanding a single sentence, until he finally saw the (filosophical) light.

He also wrote the Canon of Medicine, a classic in Medicine, that was used in Europe (in Montpellier, France, to be precisely) as late as 1650. That is, some 600 years later.

Maimonides was a Jewish Philosopher who wrote in the Arabic language (!). Remember that in those long-gone days of religious harmony in Spain (that was ruled by the Arabs) Cristians, Arabs and Jews lived happily together.

One of his books was on the Jewish Torah.

Now, Averroes was a real genius (of the exact sciences), but also a bit too honest for this world. He right believed that only true filosophical logic could lead us to the real truth - finishing a thought that Socrates was developing and on which Immanuel Kant spend almost his entiry life.

Averroes got in trouble when he stated that the Koran and the Bible are alegoric stories for ignorant people...

Some people say he is the father of modern medicine; I would say he is the (ignored) father of wisdom.
