Answer:

d. cross-sectional study

Explanation:

In research, a cross-sectional study consists of a gathering of data from a population or a subset of the population we want to investigate at an specific point of time. In other words, the data will give us an idea of what's happening within a group in a particular moment in time.

In this example, the researcher gives 20-year-olds, 40-year-olds, and 60-year-olds a questionnaire. He wants to know if older people are calmer than younger ones. We can see that <u>he wants to know what's happening within this groups (the 20 year-olds, the 40's and the 60's) during this particular time of their life </u>and therefore determine if the 60 year-olds are calmer. Therefore this is an example of cross-sectional study.

How did most miners and pioneers migrate to the West?
Bess [88]

Answer:

2.They rode in wagons to the West

and

4.They rode by train to the West.

Explanation:

<u>The way of transportation depends on the time of moving - before 1859. railroads weren't in the construction, and only around the 1870s, the railroad went all the way from East to West.</u>

<u>Before the 1850s, most of the miners and pioneers, especially t the beginning of the wave of moving, used wagons. </u>They carried all the supplies and things in the huge wagons pulled by oxen. Because the wagons were heavy and oxen slow, the moving was slow.

This all changed with the construction of the railroad that helped a lot. In 1895. there were already 5 major railroads operating in Iowa, <u>so if people were living near the train or were moving around this time, they were more likely to use the train to ride to the West.</u>
