<em>C. There were many harbors and abundant timber.</em>
Explanation:
Shipbuilding developed in the New England colonies because there were many harbors and abundant timber.
Since the climate in New England was cold and the soil wasn't very fertile, it was hard to grow crops or focus on agriculture for a living. Thankfully, the New England colonies had other ways of making money.
New England had a lot of areas full of woods, meaning there was an abundance of timber. This meant that it was easy to build things like ships, homes, and furniture. There were also many harbors, as New England was a hot spot for merchants and slave trading. Ships were created not only for these two reasons but also for fishing.
Washington served as general and colander of the armies when America was trying to gain independence from Britain and later became president
Answer: If I received this question, the only viable option in my opinion is answer choice C.
Explanation: I believe that it cannot be A due to the fact that amendments have passed and effected things other than voting rights and taxes (3rd amendment, gun rights). I believe that is cannot be B because amendments affect people under 18 (Tinker vs Des Moines). I also believe that it cannot be D due to the fact that as long as 2/3 of the Senate and House approve it and 3/4 of the states ratify it, amendments are still allowed. You could argue for the answer C since it might not pass because most proposed amendments do not pass. 27 amendments have been approved while 6 have been denied. A lot more have been discussed but ultimately not submitted to the States.
