8 0

The correct answers are letter A, B and D.

Explanation:  The Ganges is considered a sacred river by the Hindu population of India. They believe that the goddess Ganga came down from heaven to inhabit the river, so they bathe and drink the river water, believing that their sins will be cleansed. Devout Hindus visit the Ganges daily to offer food and flowers to the goddess.

Despite its religious significance and importance to the people of India, the Ganges is one of the most polluted rivers in the world.

How do you think the immigration and nationality act of 1965 changed political activity in the nation?
Zielflug [23.3K]
The Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965 got rid of the quota system for immigrants coming into the US. Before this act, there was only a certain amount of immigrants allowed into the US based on their nation of origin.

With this new act in place, immigration increased rapidly. This was especially true for individuals who were living in countries that were war stricken (like the ones in Southeast Asia). This increase in population probably worried some Americans, as individuals were coming from countries where the US was currently involved in a war (example- Vietnam). However, it really depends on the specific group of people you are studying as all American react differently to laws.

3. How did the lives of Spartan women differ from the lives of other Greek women?
Hitman42 [59]
They definitely had to stay exercised, that's how they were so built mentally and physically. All women had to obey their fathers and husbands, but Spartan women often didn't get married until their late teens or early twenties, which was quite old in ancient times for one to get married. Hope that this helps!
