The major contribution of the Islamic Age to the history of medicine was the establishment of hospitals, paid for by the charitable donations known as Zakat tax. Muslims made great technical and scientific advancements during the years 750 to 1200 CE. Examples of Muslim advancements in mathematics and medicine are spherical trigonometry and the treatment of eye diseases. This era is known in the Muslim world as the Islamic Golden Age. Muslim medicine is much more advanced than the medicine practiced by other cultures of the time. During the Middle Ages, Muslims made many intellectual contributions. They built upon the knowledge obtained by previous cultures. Much of Islam's scientific advances were based on the scientific knowledge of the Greeks. Muslim scholars were very skilled in the field of astronomy and developed a calendar that was quite accurate. Which they needed to keep track of religious observances. The astrolabe was an instrument that had been used by the ancient Greeks to calculate the position of the sun and stars. Muslim astronomers improved the astrolabe around 850 A.D. With the use of the astrolabe, Muslim geographers were able to calculate the size and circumference of the Earth. Muslim scholars created algebra and trigonometry. Chemistry was created by Muslim scholars. Muslim mathematicians created trigonometry because astronomers needed a way to calculate the distance from earth to objects in the sky.

That's what I found :) hope it helps!

Read this excerpt from the US Constitution. Which portion of the text is an example of separation of powers?
asambeis [7]

The correct answer is Article I Section 1. All legislative powers herein granted shall be vested in a Congress of the United States, which shall consist of a Senate and House of Representatives.

The idea of separation of powers refers to a government in which there are several different branches that each have unique responsibilities. The aforementioned part of the Constitution is a perfect example of this, as it states that Congress has the ability to make laws in the US. Congress is given the ability to make laws, whereas the Supreme Court is given the power to interpret the constitution and whether or not laws are constitutonal, and the President is given the power to enforce the laws. This shows that each branch has a specific job in our government.

Thousands of words were introduced to the english language during the elizabethan age. how were the new words developed? select
swat32

Answer:

They were made up.

Explanation:

The Elizabethan Era existed during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I and the language of the time was much different than today's English language.

Many words used in the Elizabethan language are  no longer in use. Other words have replaced them or the original meaning and use of the words are no longer required

An amusing example of words now 'extinct' in the modern English language is 'gong'. The Elizabethan word 'gong' meant dung. The men whose job was to empty and dispose of the waste from the privies (toilets) were called 'Gong Farmer.

The number of words used in the Elizabethan Language were constantly developing during Elizabethan times - their vocabulary was expanding.

The Elizabethan language and vocabulary had not been formalized. New words were being invented. Elizabethan dictionaries were not available. Elizabethan words were therefore written in a variety of different formats.
