The answer is D.

Traditionally, the groups characterized as untouchable were those whose occupations and habits of life involved ritually polluting activities, of which the most important were (1) taking life for a living, a category that included, for example, fishermen, (2) killing or disposing of dead cattle or working with their hides for a living, (3) pursuing activities that brought the participant into contact with emissions of the human body, such as feces, urine, sweat, and spittle, a category that included such occupational groups as sweepers and washermen, and (4) eating the flesh of cattle or of domestic pigs and chickens, a category into which most of the indigenous tribes of India fell.

fredd [130]

Answer:

Second two party system (1828 - 1854)

Explanation:

The Second Party System refers to a political system in the United States between 1828 and 1854, which was characterized by the dominance of two parties, the Democratic and the Whig parties, as well as an increase in citizen participation in politics and elections.

The First Party System, which existed roughly between 1792 - 1824, collapsed during the presidential elections of 1824 with the split of the then ruling Democratic-Republican party, with 4 candidates of the same party running for president. In the years between both systems, political parties pretty much disappeared from the public eye. However, Andrew Jackson, who was a very popular politician, created the Democratic Party and won the 1828 presidential election. The creation of the Whig Party in 1832 gave rise to the other element of the Second Party System.

However, the New Republican Party, which remained a minor party during much of this time, finally rose to prominence after the collapse of the Whig Party in 1852. By this time, the Third Party System, which existed until the end of the century, was characterized by the dominance of the New Republican and Democratic parties.
