Answer: Construct Validity

Explanation:

Construct Validity is a measure of how well a test is structured to examine the  fact or event we actually want to measure.  Put simply, do the variables we are trying to measure and labels we assign them reflect the idea that we intend?

In this question, the threat to construct validity is that black/white does not refer to race but social status due to the culture where the terms are used. The labels used here will translate into a test that measures a completely different idea, and will also generate different results from what is intended.

Why were southern states so opposed to outlawing slavery
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

In the 1830s, American abolitionists, led by Evangelical Protestants, gained momentum in their battle to end slavery. Abolitionists believed that slavery was a national sin, and that it was the moral obligation of every American to help eradicate it from the American landscape by gradually freeing the slaves and returning them to Africa.. Not all Americans agreed. Views on slavery varied state by state, and among family members and neighbors. Many Americans—Northerners and Southerners alike—did not support abolitionist goals, believing that anti-slavery activism created economic instability and threatened the racial social order.

But by the mid-nineteenth century, the ideological contradictions between a national defense of slavery on American soil on the one hand, and the universal freedoms espoused in the Declaration of Independence on the other hand, had created a deep moral schism in the national culture. During the thirty years leading up to the Civil War, anti-slavery organizations proliferated, and became increasingly effective in their methods of resistance. As the century progressed, branches of the abolitionist movement became more radical, calling for the immediate end of slavery. Public opinion varied widely, and different branches of the movement disagreed on how to achieve their aims. But abolitionists found enough strength in their commonalities—a belief in individual liberty and a strong Protestant evangelical faith—to move their agenda forward

In the spinal cord, information about one's surrounding environment is sent to the brain via
valentinak56 [21]
The external information about our surroundings is sent to the brain via nerve impulses. Our nerve impulses are special signals that travel through our spinal up to our nervous systems and brain when a certain outside force causes our body to react in a certain way. These impulses help code information, and are transmitted at various speeds in respect to the human reflex ability. In short, it is a special wave or transmission of chemical activity that exists along nerve fibers which influences the reaction of a muscle. From the nerve cell, the impulse is transmitted as a signal to an effector in response to an external force.

ex. when we put our hand on a stove, our nerves react by sending impulse signals up to our brain and nervous system which in turn, give us information that our hand is burning and needs to be removed for safety.<span />
