Answer:

The correct answer is A. The laws passed during the Johnson administration that eliminated segregation in public places and discrimination in voting were the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965.

Explanation:

Johnson assumed the Presidency after the assassination of John F. Kennedy on November 22, 1963.

Johnson passed the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which banned racial discrimination in public facilities and in any business or institution receiving federal funds. Once the Act was put into practice, its effects were far-reaching and had a huge long-term impact throughout the country. Discrimination was prohibited in public schools, in government, and in employment, invalidating the Jim Crow Laws in the southern United States. It became illegal to force the segregation of races in schools, housing, or hiring employees.

In 1965, the Voting Rights Act was passed, which banned discrimination in voting, thus allowing millions of southern African Americans to vote for the first time in the states of Alabama, South Carolina, North Carolina, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi and Virginia.

I’ve been researching this for you and Syria would be the only thing that makes sense here.

I say this because they definitely had aqueducts and bridges. They have pictures of all of these including forums.

Geographical features play an important role in the development of any kind of business. We see business and trade centers develop since ancient times because of their geographical locations. Similarly geographical features of the West contributed to the mining and cattle bloom in mid 1800s.

The large Great Plains in the west easily provide grass to the cattle which led to cattle bloom. While as rich and resourceful hills and mountains play an important role in mining bloom in the west. These hills and mountains were rich in precious metals like gold and silver and upon their discovery, West began to be flooded by people and led more discoveries of the metals. The rail connectivity of the west with east made it easy to transport meat and metals which also contributed to the mining and cattle bloom.
