When reading a graduated cylinder, a proper way to do it is to read at the level of the lower or upper meniscus. It is the curve formed at the upper part of a particular liquid that is close the surface of its container. This is caused by the surface tension. It can be in a concave or convex form depending on the characteristics of the liquid. It is important especially in performing laboratory experiments as it indicates the true level of the liquid in the container. When reading from apparatus, the lower meniscus or the upper meniscus is taken as the correct reading otherwise you would record a wrong data.

How long is an individual monarch's term of rule?
Ira Lisetskai [31]
Generally, all monarchs rule for life or until they abdicate.

Because they become a monarch after their parent's death (the previous monarch), they could be crowned only in their 50's and consequently rule for about 20 years.
However, it is not unheard of that very young people become monarch, such as Austrian Francis Joseph, or Queen Elisabeth, and then they can rule for over 60 years.

The correct answer is C) Columbian Exchange and Triangular Trade.

The two events that caused this culture found in Latin America were the Columbian Exchange and Triangular Trade.

It is correct to say that the inhabitants of Lima, Peru consists of Spaniards, Natives, Mestizos, and other casts, which is a result of the mixture of all three.

Let's have in mind that due to the Columbian exchange, thousands of white Europeans came to Mesoamerica (what today is México), the Caribbean Islands, and South America. After Spanish colonization, this vast region was known as New Spain. So Spaniards married Native Indians and Mestizos were born.

During the Columbian Exchange and Triangular Trade, people were transported to the Americas, there was continuing trade, and also Europeans brought many diseases to teh Americas that almost wipe out the entire population of Native Indians. Diseases such as chickenpox, smallpox, malaria, cholera, or influenza.
