Using your knowledge of the modern United States, write a paragraph explaining how society's interpretation of natural rights ha
Brilliant_brown [7]

The concept of Enlightenment was brought up during the 17th and 18th century, when scientists decided to focus more on the explanation of the physical universe as well as the human behavior itself, rather than by any individual characteristics. On this note, it is also important to explain that by natural rights, Thomas Jefferson meant those rights that could not be assigned or taken away, but instead were given by being simply a human being. He called those rights inalienable, and he also insisted that ¨all men are created equal¨ and he believed that ¨life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness¨ were the natural rights that had to be guaranteed and protected. Unfortunately, after Jefferson wrote the Declaration of Independence, the Continental Congress eliminated portions of the original version of his writings after Jefferson submitted the Declaration of Independence on June 28th 1776, and some of the parts that were eliminated were when Thomas Jefferson reproached the practice of slavery on part of the British people, and abuse of power on behalf of royal authorities in the American colonies. The section that talked about slavery in Jefferson´s last grievance to the king, were probably deleted because of objections by southern delegates who could have owned slaves at the time. For Thomas Jefferson, slavery was wrong; however, he had no clear idea of how to eliminate. He feared that if all slaves were to be freed all at once, that maybe their anger, added with the prejudice that would come from the whites, that there would eventually be a clash or a war between the two.  

At the time, some slave-owning Americans believed that slaves could eventually receive the natural rights only when they became civilized, until then, they had to follow orders. Seeing the practices from this time, and comparing how now, in the United States, social groups like the LGBTQ, women, children, teens, young adults and the poor have even more opportunities, more options and have been given more rights protected by the law. The American society has moved along with evolution and has had the chance to include more groups within its self. This in conclusion shows that Enlightenment has been an important part in this. The fact that more and more people choose to accept rights of different social groups shows a move towards more science based decision making, judging an individual based on his knowledge and human behavior rather than physical characteristics

How did the Industrial Rev. change farming?
oee [108]

Answer:

The Industrial Revolution brought a huge change in the way farm works are done and agricultural produces are made. It not only helped in the faster means of production but also reduced the need for manual labor.

Explanation:

The Industrial Revolution was a period of extreme change or development in the field of manufacturing and production. The period between 1760 to 1820 would bring a huge shift in the lives of people and also signaled the move from rural to urban areas.

Before the advent of the Industrial Revolution, farming was done manually, with animals helping out in major works like plowing the fields. But with the Industrial Revolution, these manual labor works would become more refined and reduced. Instead of humans doing the work, machines would replace them. This was a welcome move because it increased productivity and also required lesser workers, as long as there is a worker who can operate the machines. Also, big factories would spring up and provided a different type of employment, reducing the time taken to get work done.

You have three stoves: a gas stove, a wood stove, and a coal stove, but only one match. Which should you light first?
olganol [36]

Answer:

I´m not exactly sure but I would light the wood stove first.

Explanation:

If I lit the wood stove first, I would carefully use pieces of wood that are burning to light the other stoves. Kind of like when lighting candles for a birthday cake, you light one then use that to light the others.
