Lana71 [14]3 years ago

The correct answer is C.

Freedom Rides were performed during the Civil Rights Movement and started in 1961, in the route Washington D.C.-New Orleans. Activists organized themselves to use interstate buses that communicated different Southern cities, in order to <u>check whether segregation had been abolished or not in public transport interstate facilities</u>, as the US Supreme Court decisions <em>Morgan v. Virginia</em> (1946) and <em>Boynton v. Virginia </em>(1960) had stated.

They could see in person how Southern states had ignored those decisions and how segregation continued ocurring.

Why was Andreas Vesalius so significant? (Give detailed reasons)
zmey [24]

Andreas Vesalius founded modern anatomy. His remarkable 1543 book De humini corporus fabrica was a fully illustrated anatomy of the human body. Based on observations he made during dissections, the book overthrew misconceptions in anatomy that had persisted for over a thousand years.

Vesalius was an anatomy professor at the University of Padua and a physician to Holy Roman Emperor, Charles V. At the age of 15 Vesalius enrolled at Louvain University.

In 1540, at the age of 25, Vesalius began working on a fully illustrated anatomical textbook: De humini corporus fabrica – The Structure of the Human Body. It would be his greatest work, Accompanying the illustrations were descriptions of the muscles’ operations.  Not surprisingly, given the richness of its illustrations and its shear bulk, The Fabrica was an expensive purchase, intended for physicians, libraries, and aristocrats.  Recognizing that others might also be interested in his work, Vesalius simultaneously released a practical, more affordable text with fewer illustrations entitled The Epitome. Most of The Fabrica’s readers were positive about it. It became the go-to book for serious anatomists and physicians. However, some physicians and academics felt threatened by its revelations: they had built their careers on Galen’s work and lashed out at Vesalius.

Having brought himself to the notice of the emperor, Vesalius was appointed physician to the imperial household. He resigned his professorship in Padua, becoming the fifth generation of the Wesele/Vesalius family to be in imperial service.

Did Russia have a strong government in the 1800s?
nydimaria [60]

When Alexander I came to the throne in March 1801, Russia was in a state of hostility with most of Europe, though its armies were not actually fighting; its only ally was its traditional enemy, Turkey. The new emperor quickly made peace with both France and Britain and restored normal relations with Austria. His hope that he would then be able to concentrate on internal reform was frustrated by the reopening of war with Napoleon in 1805. Defeated at Austerlitz in December 1805, the Russian armies fought Napoleon in Poland in 1806 and 1807, with Prussia as an ineffective ally. After the Treaty of Tilsit (1807), there were five years of peace, ended by Napoleon’s invasion of Russia in 1812. From the westward advance of its arms in the next two years of heavy fighting, Russia emerged as Europe’s greatest land power and the first among the continental victors over Napoleon. The immense prestige achieved in these campaigns was maintained until mid-century. During this period, Russian armies fought only against weaker enemies: Persia in 1826, Turkey in 1828–29, Poland in 1830–31, and the mountaineers of the Caucasus during the 1830s and ’40s. When Europe was convulsed by revolution in 1848 (see Revolutions of 1848), Russia and Great Britain alone among the great powers were unaffected, and in the summer of 1849 the tsar sent troops to crush the Hungarians in Transylvania. Russia was not loved, but it was admired and feared. To the upper classes in central Europe, Nicholas I was the stern defender of monarchical legitimacy; to democrats all over the world, he was “the gendarme of Europe” and the chief enemy of liberty. But the Crimean War (1853–56) showed that this giant had feet of clay. The vast empire was unable to mobilize, equip, and transport enough troops to defeat the medium-size French and English forces under very mediocre command. Nicholas died in the bitter knowledge of general failure.
