Some slaves learned how to read through other slaves, or in some cases the masters of slaves teach them how to read.

For example, Frederick Douglass learned how to read from his mistress, Miss Auld, who taught him simple letters and words.

What do all nations that had on Industrial Revolution have in common?

katrin2010 [14]

Explanation:

The Industrial Revolution marked a period of development in the latter half of the 18th century that transformed largely rural, agrarian societies in Europe and America into industrialized, urban ones.

Goods that had once been painstakingly crafted by hand started to be produced in mass quantities by machines in factories, thanks to the introduction of new machines and techniques in textiles, iron making and other industries.

Fueled by the game-changing use of steam power, the Industrial Revolution began in Britain and spread to the rest of the world, including the United States, by the 1830s and ‘40s. Modern historians often refer to this period as the First Industrial Revolution, to set it apart from a second period of industrialization that took place from the late 19th to early 20th centuries and saw rapid advances in the steel, electric and automobile industries.

What is one of the key indicators of primates' adaptability?

boyakko [2]

It's interesting that you posted your question in the history section of Brainly. It qualifies in the category of "Big History," as some have termed it. That term was coined by the scholar David Christian, whom I met once at a conference where he was a presenter. His idea was that we look at "history" not just as what has happened in the recorded records of human beings, but look back at all that has occurred in the history of the universe. So the "Big History" concept incorporates the story of evolution into its account of things.

As far as your specific question, a key indicator of primates' adaptability is that you see primates living in all sorts of different regions on the planet. Snow monkeys live in cold regions of Japan where snow covers the ground many months of the year. Howler monkeys live in the tropical rainforests of Brazil. And there are other primates of all sorts in all sorts of climates and conditions. That shows the adaptability of primates to survive and thrive in various circumstances.
