Answer:
The railroad had major advantages over previous modes of transportation, being both flexible and dependable; they were not subject to winter ice as canals were, and were faster and more reliable than steamships. This was especially important when transporting agricultural products.
Explanation:
Railroads created a more interconnected society. Counties were able to more easily work together due to the decreased travel time. With the use of the steam engine, people were able to travel to distant locations much more quickly than if they were using only horse-powered transportation.

Answer:
Monica took on customer service duties, but the job description didn't reflect the change.
Explanation:
The job analysis is when the job descriptions that will be held compared to the needs that each person holding the job must fulfill to describe these needs are successfully described, ie the company should analyze if the job holder is within the qualitative requirements for the position. Based on this, in the case exposed in the question, we can say that Monica was hired as an office assistant, but took over the customer service functions very efficiently, but the job description did not reflect the change.
Indentured servants were people residing in the colonies who would sign a work contract, usually for 6 or so years, in exchange for land or even getting their crimes pardoned. Indentured servants were NOT considered to be property of the contract holder and upon their contract being up, they were able to be an equal part of the community (able to own property and vote). A slave was brought over from Africa (mainly) against their will and had no definite contract. Sometimes slave holders would let the slave buy their way to freedom, but most were slaves for life. If they could "buy" their way out, they received nothing in return for their laboring years and could not own property or vote.
Slavery became the most popular form of labor in the colonies because the slave owners did not have to give the slaves anything in return, could have them indefinitely, and in all honesty just didn't view them as people. It was both a moral issue as well as the fact that the slave owners could just save more money in the end.
