One way in which commercial extraction of raw materials in Egypt was different from the commercial extraction of raw materials in the Amazon in the period 1750-1900, was the following.
The commercial extraction of raw materials in Egypt was basically the product of the British colonization efforts in that part of North Africa. Great Britain had several colonies in Africa, one of them being Egypt. More than colonizing the territory to help people to develop and grow, the reality was that the English monarchy just wanted to exploit those raw materials and natural resources. And exploit they did.
In the case of the Amazon forest, European nations such as Portugal did something similar but they instilled the concept of latifundium, wealthy people that owned the land and forced slaves to work, produce, and harvest the crops that were exported to be industrialized.

The correct answer is B) New laws were passed to ensure better quality of food.
The book <em>The Jungle </em>by Upton Sinclair exposed the disgusting working conditions and habits of the meatpacking industry. This included sweeping guts of the floor and the inclusion of rats in meat sold to the American people. The conditions described disgusted the American people and resulted in president Teddy Roosevelt passing the Meat Inspection Act of 1906. This law would ensure the cleanliness and safety of meat sold to the American public by having the government inspect these types of factories.
The Jungle exposed the terrible situations of the meatpacking industry, brought it to the limelight what was really happening when the government didn't step into businesses. It shadowed a hard working immigrant family and the struggles they faced when coming to America. One of the biggest things it brought to light was the terrible situations seen at a meat packing facility. It also brought up numerous other issues, such as the circumstances employees had to work in, prostitution, and immigration. Although this was a fictional story it was based in reality for a working family. It became widely widespread and people called for change. Sinclair wrote it in hopes that more people would become social democrats. He said 'I aimed at the public's heart and by accident, I hit it in the stomach'. He may not have had as big of an impression as he had expected, but he did get the American people up in arms that Congress passed a bill within weeks to try and talk some of the issues that people saw in The Jungle. This is one of many things that Progressives sought to achieve.
