Answer:

The 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, ratified in 1868, granted citizenship to all persons born or naturalized in the United States—including former slaves—and guaranteed all citizens “equal protection of the laws.”The 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution was one of the three Reconstruction Amendments which, along with the 13th and 15th, was primarily intended to establish equal civil rights for former slaves. It was passed by Congress on June 13, 1866, and ratified by the states as of July 9, 1868.

The reformation began when this man posted the 95 theses
Marianna [84]
The man being described is Martin Luther.

Martin Luther created the 95 theses based on his dissatisfaction with the Catholic Church. When he posted these 95 theses on October 31, 1517, he discussed several different factors about the Catholic Church that he felt were wrong, including:

1) The sale of indulgences- Indulgences was when a person was to be forgiven for committing a sin/crime by giving a certain amount of money to the church.

2) Religious posts (jobs) were often given to the person with the most money. Martin Luther felt that this was an awful way to conduct the church, as the person who had the most money did not always necessarily have the best intentions or the most knowledge about the religion.

3) The sermons given were usually in Latin- This was not the most popular language at this time so very few people understood Christianity as a whole. Instead, they relied on the priests interpretation as the only source of information.

What was one method the framers used to improve the chances of the constitution being ratified?
WARRIOR [948]
The framers used compromise in order to increase the chances of the constitution being ratified. Each of the political factions developing during this time, the federalists and anti-federalists, had different things they wanted in terms of structuring American society.


The federalists wanted a new constitution and to get rid of the Articles of Confederation. The anti-federalists, wanted to simply amend the Articles of Confederation. However, the anti-federalists were open to a new constitution as long as it had a list of individual rights that the government could not take away.

The framers compromised and gave each side something they desired. The federalists would get a new constitution and the anti-federalists would get a list of rights they were guaranteed to have. This became known as the Bill of Rights.

SHORT ANSWER - Explain the purpose of the three-field system and how it works. *
natulia [17]

Answer:

The three-field system let farmers plant more crops and therefore increase production. The three field system was a system of crop rotation. The method was that two fields would be planted and one would rest. One third for winter crops, one thirds for spring crops, and one that was left fallow. Crop rotation allows fields to be left unplanted or fallow in order to allow the soil to recover.

Renaissance artists often painted images of God in the form of a(n) __________. A. star B. light C. animal D. human
denis23 [38]

The correct answer is D. human.

Indeed, one of the main notions of the Renaissance was humanism. This philosophy posits that since we are all humans one fundamental principle of our culture is the value of human beings in all their facets, physical, spiritual, religious and social.

The Renaissance artists took very seriously the Bible, notably the Genesis passage about man being created in the image of God as the image below proves. You will notice that God is enclosed in a cloth that follows the same contours of a side view of the human brain.
