It increased the demand for steel since steel was used to make railcars and tracks.

Steel was used to make railroad tracks and cars because it was the only metal strong enough. So the expansion of the railroad industry would mean more steel had to be used and thus it would increase the demand.

The third alternative is correct (C).

The expansion of the railways was a phenomenon of great relevance for the American economy, since it connected cities and markets, allowing the transportation of cargoes in practically the whole national territory.

In this context, all industrial sectors have benefited. In particular, the steel industry, since steel was the raw material for the train tracks, with a large increase in demand during that period.

In what ways do temperance and health reforms offer reflections on the changes in the United States before the Civil War? What n
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

First, all three movements gained popularity with the middle classes. Second, All three movements were a product of the urban, rural divide in America. Third, all three movements had racial elements. The Temperance Movement grew out of the Second Great Awakening religious revival, as did Abolition. Temperance in the early 1800s transitioned from reduction of use of hard spirits to total abstinence. This reform movement was resisted by recent urban immigrant groups from Ireland and Germany because it ran counter to their cultural experience much as prohibition in the 20th century ran counter to the cultural experience of Southern and Eastern European immigrants. It was thought that drink was the cause of all evils in urban life. As in the other movements there was a racist component not far underneath the avowed purpose. The Health Reform Movement also focused on middle class fears of diseases like cholera and yellow fever emanating from garbage and filth in slums inhabited by recent immigrants. The movement had some basis in science as it advocated cleaning slum areas and providing clean water to slums as a city government service. Again the racist assumption was that immigrants woul not clean their own residential areas without public action. At the time the middle class paid private companies to carry away trash and cart in clean water for their use. The fear of cholera prompted health reform. Phrenology was a pseudo science claiming that. The shape of the head determined characteristics of the individual. It was later used by racists to support bogus theories of racial inferiority. So these movements aided Antebellum Americans in defining cultural norms and maintaining the status quo regarding racial hierarchies.

Write a paragraph about protesting
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

There are two types of protest, Non-violent and violent protesting. The main one and the one that I focused on was non-violent because it is used more and it is more effective. Recently we have seen celebrites protesting for the black lives matter and police brutality. In 2016 San Fransico quarterback Colin Kaepernick took a knee during the national anthem as a way to say he does not stand for the unfair and injustice ways black Americans are treated.
