The correct answer is B) developing humane treatment of the mentally ill and C) establishing hospitals for the mentally ill.

<em>The two goals of Dorothea Dix's movement to help the mentally ill were developing humane treatment of the mentally ill and establishing hospitals for the mentally ill.</em>

Dorothea Dix (1802-1887) was an educator that dedicated part of her life to helping the mentally. She had social reformers ideas and work for more humane treatment for the mentally ill.

She saw wit horror how those people were treated at hospitals in Massachusetts and started to talk to US legislators to built hospitals that could attend mentally ill people.

I would say the two goals are developing humane treatment for the mentally ill and establishing hospitals for the mentally ill. Dorothea saw the terrible living conditions of the mentally ill and started a reform to fix them because they were treated terribly. They were abused and found playing with rats etc.

1. Ancestors of the Mayan people may have come from Asia.<br> A. False<br> B. True
skad [1K]

The correct answer is B. True

Explanation:

The Mayas were a complex civilization that existed in Mexico and nearby territories including part of Honduras. In terms of origin, it is believed ancestors of the Mayan people, as well as other tribes in the continent, descended from Asian people that traveled to America thousands of years ago. This was possible due to a natural land bridge that existed between Asia and America, which is known as the Bering Strait. In this way, Asian peoples migrated to America through this land bridge and then colonized the continent, which led to different communities including the Mayas.

Maurinko [17]
The correct answer is <span>B. Employ absolute power to maintain order in the areas under their rule.
Machiaveli's idea about ruling was that it is better to be feared that to be loved. Thus a ruler, a king, emperor, or whoever was in charge of a country, had to have absolute power over everyone and instill fear in his or her subjects so that they cannot even think about rebelling. </span>
