The correct answer is - to expedite trade by finding and charting alternative methods of transport to Asia.

The Ottomans made a large empire, and they managed to gain control of the trade routes between Europe and Asia, demanding high taxes for both sides if they wanted to use their territory for trade. The Europeans did not fancy this, so they sponsored an expedition, one of many to come, so that a new sea route is found for Asia, thus trading through it freely. Columbus was the main explorer of one of those missions. He went westwards with the ships he had at disposal, hoping that he will come to the eastern coast of Asia. He indeed came to some islands, and later a mainland, and all excited about it he called the natives Indians, as he actually thought it is India that he reached. Little did he knew that he actually discovered new continents.

<em>Answer:</em>

<em>Hello There. The Correct answer is O B. The plants can be located anywhere.</em>

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Renewable resources will not run out because they are replaced as quickly as they are used (see example in Figure below). Can you think of some renewable and non-renewable energy sources?

katrin [286]

The people who had the greatest influence on Franklin D. Roosevelt were not his schoolmates of Groton.

<h3><u>FDR:</u></h3>

The full meaning of FDR is Franklin D. Roosevelt.

<h3><u>History:</u></h3>

Alexander Hamilton, Thomas Jefferson, and Roosevelt starts or helps to start a movement and we're the only U.S. President who were elected four times.

In fact, they studied in Gorton, Harvard, and Columbia, who were the people who met and there were not their greatest influence.  

However, referring to the above pointers, it is clear that the people who had the greatest influence on Franklin D. Roosevelt were not his schoolmates of Groton.

Hence, the given statement is false.

Why do you think the author of this article thinks it is ironic the monarchy returns to power in France after the French Revolut
jeyben [28]

Answer:

While I don't know what author you're talking about I can try to help.

The author believes it to be ironic that the power returns to the monarchy after a revolution because that's exactly what the revolution was attempting to combat and change and in the end the revolution accomplished nothing if that was their goal.
