The correct answer (sample response) is:

Safer and more versatile railroads made it easier to travel and settle the West. Refrigerator cars helped the meatpacking industry to grow. Longer rail lines made it easier to send crops to markets. New railroads brought minerals and raw materials to iron and steel mills.

These are the effects of the growth of agriculture in the Midwest.

Railroads helped the US grow by making settlement in the West possible after the Civil War by connecting farmers (miners, ranchers, loggers, and others) to markets. there people and companies could both ship their produce to markets as well as ship in the machinery and supplies they needed. It was the only way to move large amounts of things quickly.

What issues determined Native Americans involvement in the American Revolution?
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

They fought for the promise to keep their land, hunting rights, and isolation from the American settlers.

Explanation:

Hello there emilyrtsai15, The American Revolution of 1765 was a rather bloody battle that the Native Americans of the Americas found themselves always entwined in. Native Americans fought on both sides of the American Revolution, the most notable tribes being the Iroquois, Cherokees, and Creeks. Their allegiances with both sides however were at most times highly unstable. They fought for the promise to keep their land, hunting rights, and isolation from the American settlers. Those that fought under both the British and Americans however met the grim fate of having everything promised in return for their support stripped of them in one form of another.

Hope this helps!
