Answer: The judge ruled that the only issue before  the jury was whether Scopes had taught evolution, and no one had denied  that he had, he was found guilty.

Explanation:

In 1925 the state legislature of the state of Tennessee passed a bill outlawing the teaching of evolution in public schools and colleges. The governor signed the bill with the hope that it would never be applied. He was wrong. In the town of Dayton, in eastern Tennessee, citizens excited to benefit from a burst of publicity persuaded a 24 years old high-school science teacher and part-time football coach, John T. Scopes, to accept an offer from the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) to defend a test case. He was found guilty, but the Tennessee Supreme Court, while  upholding the state’s anti-evolution statute, overruled the $100 fine on a  technicality. The real question was if the state should pass laws prohibiting the teaching of evolution in  public schools and colleges. The Scopes trial did not end the uncivil war between  evolutionists and fundamentalists. It continues to this day.

One of Antonius Caesar's commanders, Lepldus, was the leader of the cavalry, and the young but more purposeful Octavian was Caesar's nephew, the dictator's official heir, whose uncle took control of the events.

The following year they defeated the (Philippi, 42 BC) and then divided among themselves the power over the empire: Octavian to the West, Antonius to the East, and Africa to the Republicans. Lepidus soon faded into the background, and then Octavian and Antonius continued to fight each other for monopoly. Another civil war became inevitable. Antonius relied on Hellenistic Egypt. To the last Egyptian queen, VII. Because of his love affair with Cleopatra, many feared that Antonius E would not appreciate Roman tradition and that the center of gravity of the empire would be to the east. For this reason, the majority of the Romans supported Octavian. The decisive clash took place at Actium (31 BC), and Octavian won the naval battle. He became the power.

In what ways did world war 2 most directly affect consumers at home
ICE Princess25 [194]
Surprisingly, in many ways. However it mostly depends on which country.
I'll give you an overall answer that all countries had in common.
For the most part, there was food regulations and a lot of "support your military" propaganda. 
Food was scarce, and the military needed donations. 
This also goes as far as bedding, vehicles, and communication devises. 

I hope this helps! :)
