Answer:

may not be applied to those who were under 18 when they committed a crime

Explanation:

The Supreme Court has decided that the death penalty may not be applied to those who were under 18 when they committed a crime. Even if they commit a horrific crime, such as homicide, the most ammount of time they can serve is live in prison, without parole. Also, in 2012 the court announced that life in prison for anyone under the age of 18, is unconstitutional. Therefore, most children will have a resentencing hearing to decide how long their new sentence will be. However, the judge does not have to change their sentence.

<h3>What is slave trade?</h3>

The trend of selling and acquiring human being with the purpose of work and exploitation is referred as Slave trade. These include sending and capturing human being for trafficking as slaved.

Alcohol manufacture requires sugar as a key ingredient. It is useful and was a valued commodity in trade. Many conflicts have  arisen in Africa between tribes and kingdoms due to power and opinion.

The culture of slave trade has increased significantly due to the growth of the Atlantic economy, the fast expansion of the English colonies, and the establishment of a plantation system as they  all increased the demand for labour from Africans.

To remember the face of a new person you have just met, you associate the new person's features with those of your best friend.
gayaneshka [121]

True

<span>Elaborative rehearsal refers to the process of remembering new information by linking it to previously learned information and making it meaningful in some way. </span>

<span>Using the mnemonic device “My Very Educated Mother Just Served Us Noodles” to recall the planets of the solar system (Mars, Venus, Earth, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune) by taking the first letter of each planet is an example of elaborative rehearsal. By linking the list of planets to other previously known information, one is more likely to remember the list of planets.
