Answer:
the revival of Christian faith and concepts from Calvinism.
Explanation:
Many of these concepts derived from Calvinism in which humans were sinners and that faith alone would be your salvation. During this time period there was a decline in the Christian faith and many secular ideas from the Age of Reason contributed to this decline. Preachers like Jonathan Edwards or George Whitefield would preach to people about religion and would even preach to the slaves and the Native Americans in the U.S.
This ultimately led the colonies of America to unite together and to help form the "american identity" and encouraged nationalism and individual rights through the time period Britain was the ruler of these colonies. But the most important cause was that it influenced the Revolutionary War.
The correct answer is D) Anthropocene Epoch.
Some scholars suggest that a new planetary epoch has begun, as human-environmental alterations have begun to replace preexisting geological and natural climatological fluctuations. This new epoch is known as the Anthropocene Epoch.
Just to understand the context, let's remember that according to scientists, humans are living in the Holocene epoch. When did this period start? Well, after the last major ice age. Historians think that this happened approximately 11,700 years ago. So after so many things that have happened recently and the situation that humans are living today on the Earth, scientists consider that humanity has entered this new epoch called Anthropocene.
The correct answer is D) form an exploratory committee.
A potential candidate most likely forms an exploratory committee.
Before participating in a primary, the politician who is aspiring to run for the presidency, first of all, has to form an exploratory committee. This way he/she could asses the real chances he/she has and the probable support of the members of his party. In a bi-partisan system like the one in the United States has, the two more dominant parties have been the Republican Party and the Democratic party.
