Answer:

Hi!

The answer would be <u>B</u> or the second option. <u>The South became more dependent on slavery, deepening the differences between the South and the North.</u>

Explanation:

So the "gin" (short for engine), was a small machine invented in the 19th century to help workers separate the seeds from the fibers in short-staple cotton. Although cotton still needed to be picked by hand, the cotton gin improved the efficiency in which cotton was produced and the demand for cotton roughly doubled each decade after.

So cotton became a very profitable business that  demanded a growing slave-labor force to harvest it.

What role did Napoleon play in Beethoven’s Eroica? Did Beethoven continue this?
borishaifa [10]
Beethoven considered dedicating the symphony to Napoleon because as Napoleon came to prominence, he seemed like a leader who would represent the common people and democratic values. <span>Beethoven became angered when Napoleon declared himself emperor, he crossed out the reference to Napoleon and wrote "to celebrate the memory of a great man" — meaning Napoleon was no longer great after he rejected democratic ideals and declared himself emperor. Thus, Napoleon's role was a great leader, and Beethoven did not continue it.</span>

Answer:

Plessy v. Ferguson was a landmark 1896 U.S. Supreme Court decision that upheld the constitutionality of racial segregation under the “separate but equal” doctrine. The case stemmed from an 1892 incident in which African American train passenger Homer Plessy refused to sit in a car for blacks. Rejecting Plessy’s argument that his constitutional rights were violated, the Supreme Court ruled that a law that “implies merely a legal distinction” between whites and blacks was not unconstitutional. As a result, restrictive Jim Crow legislation and separate public accommodations based on race became commonplace.
