The answer to your question is D because cell phones & the Internet are both forms of instant communication.
Answer:
A. The vikings were more curious than most EUROPEANS, B. The Vikings had the technology to sail long distance and D. The vikings reached Americas before other Europeans.
Explanation:
Leif Ericsson was the explorer who is believed to be the first European to arrive at the North American continent. He arrived in 1000 CE and established the first settlement called Vinland. He was son of Eric the Red, Eric is credited with the discovery of Greenland and building the first settlement there. His accounts had been passed down as legends through the vikings sagas. In 999CE, he was given the task to convert the Greenlanders to Christianity by the king Olaf first and while returning to Greenland from Norway he got off track and landed in North America. This discovery was a pure co incidence and was not funded by anyone.
Left Panel
I don't know how to eliminate all the choices, but the answer for this question is E.
A is incorrect. Out of 10000 cases making an appeal to the Supreme court, only 80 are hear.
B: Sometimes a case is heard if only 1 justice wants to hear it because the case is in the realm of his specialty. So B is not true.
C: C is one of those possibilities that is possible that might be true. Actually the cases presented to the court go through a pool of clerks who decide whether or not to pass it on.
D: For the same reason that B is not the answer, I don't think this one is either. The court has in recent history had an odd number of justices. I don't think the chief justice has any more votes than any of the others. The vote rarely is 4 to 4 close, especially recently.
