History

The correct answer is Monroe and Livingston were sent overseas in order to buy Louisiana from Napoleon.

The purchase of Louisiana from the French resulted in the United States doubling in size. This purchase allowed the United States to gain 800,000 square miles. This would ultimately make 13 different US states and would help to expand Jefferson's idea of the United States becoming a nation of independent, self-sufficient farmers.

When Mendel crossed a tall plant with a short plant, what did he observe? Why?
Lady_Fox [76]

During this time, Mendel observed seven different characteristics in the pea plants, and each of these characteristics had two forms (Figure 3). The characteristics included height (tall or short), pod shape (inflated or constricted), seed shape (smooth or winkled), pea color (green or yellow), and so on. When a tall and short plant are crossed, all of the offspring are tall. If the offspring self-fertilize, they produce tall and short plants in a ratio of 3:1 in the next generation. Mendel's actual counts were 787 tall:277 short plants in this generation (2.84:1 ratio).

What is one political, social, and economic change caused by the civil war
larisa [96]

Economic: The south lost much of its agricultural land due to it being destroyed in battles, and the loss of slavery meant serious economic downfall because their industry relied heavily on slave labour. However, the North was more industrialised, so it benefitted from the added railroad and the manufacture of wartime products.

Social: 2% of the population was killed; many lost loved ones and family members. Also, racial prejudice resulted in the formation of the KKK by many whites who were angry that African-Americans had been freed-- as well as the Jim Crow laws being enforced

Political: 13th, 14th and 15th amendments passed in the constitution
