Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

1. European traders traded guns, cloth, rum, salt. Guns had the biggest impact on Africa because they gave West African villages a way to protect themselves and caused villages to capture and enslave others to trade for guns.

2.The noble metals (silver and gold), the basis of the medieval monetary systems, were almost always insufficient to meet the needs of the demand for currency.

3.Features such as migration of people, invasions, population distribution, and deurbanization characterized this period. The medieval ages had three periods, which include the antiquity, the medieval periods, and the modern period, all of which exhibited different characteristics.

4.???

5.Major problems Europe faced during the middle ages were Disease, Religion, Environment, War, and Economy.

6. Trade in the High Middle Ages. Improved roads and vehicles of transportation provide for increasingly far-flung urban markets. Cities are, in some ways, parasitical on the land around them.

NemiM [27]

Answer:

You will see an afterimage of the star in C. green hue.

Explanation:

The Opponent-Process Theory explains that an individual's perception of colors operates under 3 opposing systems:

  • Black vs. white
  • Red vs. green
  • Blue vs. yellow

An individual perceives a hue based on 2 colors but he/she <em>can only see </em><em>one </em>of these opposing colors at once.

In this case, if you stare at a red star, you are looking at the red vs. green system so once you are done looking at the red, you will see the <em>green afterimage</em> of it, since green opposes red.
