The Appalachian Mountains provide a number of important benefits to Georgia. The mountains provide rich mineral deposits of coal, zinc, copper, lead, and silver. The mountains also prevent strong winds and cyclones from impacting the interior of the state. The mountains are often a important water source. These water sources serve as the basis for hydroelectric power in the region.

Agriculture arose in North America (and western hemisphere more generally)
mart [117]

Answer:

The agriculture in the western hemisphere developed nearly simultaneously as in Asia/eastern hemisphere.

Explanation:

A is not correct because it was almost at the same time where agriculture started developing in both hemispheres, with the evidence suggesting a difference of only a few hundred years.

B is not correct because the western hemisphere would not have been able to produce any great civilizations if agriculture was not well developed and the basis of the economy.

C is correct because independently, at nearly the same time, the people living in both hemispheres started to plant and rise some of the wild plants that they thought have great potential, thus giving birth to agriculture.

D is not correct because the climate conditions in the western hemisphere at that time would not have allowed people to engage in agriculture, especially not in large scale agriculture and to be able to produce enough food for themselves and have a surplus.

Explain in 1-2 complete sentences why the colonists in Maryland didn't want to pay the king's taxes after the French and Indian
Ahat [919]

Answer:

They felt the taxes violated their rights as British citizens.

Explanation:

The colonists in Maryland didn't want to pay the king's taxes after the French and Indian war, especially since they had no representation (voice) in the English government, because "they felt the taxes violated their rights as British citizens."

Also, just like other American colonists at the time, they felt that those taxes are high and "Intolerable, " for them to pay.
