The correct answer here is B.
The Whiskey Rebellion of 1791, began because of the first tax law implemented during the presidency of George Washington. The tax was meant to apply to all alcoholic beverages but as whiskey was by far the most dominant  US alcoholic product the tax became known as the "whiskey tax".

This did not sit well with the residents of Pennsylvania because firstly they were mostly farmers and they used their leftover products to distill whiskey. Whiskey was even used as a substitute for money as it served as bartering good between the residents. The people did not want to pay taxes on something they use to barter and create.

How does south America's location over the equator affect its overall climate
olga2289 [7]
The majority of South America lies south of the Equator, which is why it is called South America. The equator line winds (Coriolis effect), which blow daily from east to west, have a significant effect on the climate. These winds carry ocean moisture into the lowlands of the Amazon river. The western mountains (Andes Mountains) obstruct moisture escape and it spins counter-clockwise to the south and east. This moisture is absorbed by the frigid south pole winds, resulting in an abundance of rain in the tropical cyclone.
South America's triangle form is ideal for rains because it permits polar winds (from west to east) to blow in, sometimes up to the equator line or near to it, carrying more south ocean moisture into the continent and generating showers.
Another significant component affecting climate is the South Atlantic high pressure, although that is a separate subject.

Why was the migration of the Aryans to India significant? help , stuck on this question and need to get my work turned in today
Virty [35]
The migration of the Aryans to India was significant, because they expanded a huge empire spanning the whole of the Indian subcontinent and what is now modern-day Afghanistan and Iran. The Indo-Aryan languages are still spoken nowadays in India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Nepal, Fiji and the Maldives. The Aryans also introduced the horse and chariot into the area. They established powerful kingdoms and principalities in the zone.
