<em><u>Answer:</u></em>

A) The transatlantic cable was not functional at that time.

<em><u>Explanation:</u></em>

Lincoln was shot at the night theater execution on 14 April, 1865, however Europe needed to sit tight for the Reuter release in early in the day of 26 April to find out about it.

The reason for this delay is that the Telegraph Construction and Maintenance Company of Britain  laid the cable in 1866, after various unsuccessful attempts.

which statement best describes how the concept of narural rights influenced the decltration of independance
Pani-rosa [81]

You r answer is <em>D. It inspired Americans to move toward self-rule by declaring independence from a government that denied them representation.</em>

Explanation:

The Declaration is based on the settings of the School of Natural Law and the philosophy of J. Locke, while similar in structure to the European feudal charters of liberty, in particular the English Bill of Rights of 1688. The declaration, in its introductory part, proclaims the inalienable natural rights of man to equality, life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, the right of the people to independence and the free choice of government, and the right of the people to rebellion and the removal of tyrannical power. He then enumerates thirty violations of the rights of the colonies committed by the British king, justifying their rebellion; ends with the declaration that the united colonies are free and independent states.
