Answer:

Thomas Jefferson's phrase "Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness"

Explanation:

The concept of "Life, liberty" is expressed in one of the most famous works of John Locke: <em>the Two Treatises of Government </em>(1689). According to Locke, men are naturally free and equal, but with the purpose to interact in a healthy society, it was necessary that they transferred some of their rights to a government. Such government had to be elected by the people and changed by the people whenever they decided to, and had to ensure people's stability, conflicts resolutions, and people's right to life, freedom, and property.

The concept of "pursuit of happiness" is said to be taken out from one of the others Locke's work: <em>An Essay Concerning Human Understanding </em><em>(1689)</em>, where the philosopher expressed that "the highest perfection of intellectual nature lies in a careful and constant pursuit of true and solid happiness".

What was the first institution fully controlled by blacks that took part in
Rasek [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is: Churches.

Explanation:

Churches were one of the first social institutions fully controlled by African Americans. During Reconstruction, many black religious groups started growing rapidly in the South and became the key points within developing African American communities. It was the result of the discrimination and segregation in white religious communities. The most important religious groups were: African Methodist Episcopal, African Methodist Episcopal Zion, and various Baptist groups.  

Every church was the epitome of an African American community. It also was the general meeting house and the social center of the black community.

according to Locke, what rights do men possess? What's is the purpose of government? What type of government does he propose?
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

Locke believed that human nature allowed people to be selfish.

This is apparent with the introduction of currency. In a natural state, all people were equal and independent, and everyone had a natural right to defend his "life, health, liberty, or possessions."

Locke favored a representative government such as the English Parliament, which had a hereditary House of Lords and an elected House of Commons. But he wanted representatives to be only men of property and business. Consequently, only adult male property owners should have the right to vote.

North America has four major deserts: Great Basin, Mohave, Chihuahuan and Sonoran. All but the Sonoran Desert have cold winters. Freezing temperatures are even more limiting to plant life than is aridity, so colder deserts are poorer in both species and life forms, especially succulents.

The four North American deserts

The Great Basin Desert (plate 10) is both the highest-elevation and northernmost of the four and has very cold winters. The seasonal distribution of precipitation varies with latitude, but temperatures limit the growing season to the summer. Vegetation is dominated by a few species of low, small-leafed shrubs; there are almost no trees or succulents and not many annuals. The indicator plant (the most common or conspicuous one used to identify an area) is big sagebrush (Artemisia tridentata), which often grows in nearly pure stands over huge vistas. (Such cold shrub/deserts in the "Old World" are called steppes.)

The Mohave Desert (plate 11) is characterized largely by its winter rainy season. Hard freezes are common but not as severe as in the Great Basin Desert. The perennial vegetation is composed mostly of low shrubs; annuals carpet the ground in wet years. There are many species of these two life forms, but few succulents and trees grow there. The only common tree species is the characteristic joshua tree (Yucca brevifolia), an arborescent (treelike) yucca that forms extensive woodlands above 3000 feet (900 m) elevation.

Though the Chihuahuan Desert (plate 12) is the southernmost, it lies at a fairly high elevation and is not protected by any barrier from arctic air masses, so hard winter freezes are common. Its vegetation consists of many species of low shrubs, leaf succulents, and small cacti. Trees are rare. Rainfall is predominantly in the summer, but in the northern end there is occasionally enough winter rain to support massive blooms of spring annuals. The Chihuahuan Desert is unexpectedly rich in species despite the winter cold.
