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.

Explanation:

The Vietnam War (Vietnamese: Chiến tranh Việt Nam), also known as the Second Indochina War,[60] and in Vietnam as the Resistance War Against America (Vietnamese: Kháng chiến chống Mỹ) or simply the American War, was a conflict in Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia from 1 November 1955[A 1] to the fall of Saigon on 30 April 1975.[15] It was the second of the Indochina Wars and was officially fought between North Vietnam and South Vietnam. North Vietnam was supported by the Soviet Union, China,[19] and other communist allies; South Vietnam was supported by the United States, South Korea, the Philippines, Australia, Thailand and other anti-communist allies.[61][62] The war, considered a Cold War-era proxy war by some,[63] lasted 19 years, with direct U.S. involvement ending in 1973, and included the Laotian Civil War and the Cambodian Civil War, which ended with all three countries becoming communist in 1975.

Which BEST describes the Great Migration that occurred as a result of World War I?
eduard

The correct answer is B) African-Americans began moving North seeking job opportunities.

The Great Migration is when thousands of African-Americans moved to Northern industrial cities. This is due to the increased amount of factory jobs available thanks to World War I. Along with this, African-Americans also enjoyed less discrimination in the North in comparison to the South. Even though racism existed still in the North, there were not as many Jim Crow laws that affected African Americans on a daily basis.
