The correct answer is A) to ensure individual freedoms.

The 9th amendment essentially states that any right not given specifically to the government is retained by the people. The implementation of this amendment was rooted in the fears of American citizens who worried about a tyrannical central government that would take away the rights of citizens. This paranoia about a strong central government really originated due to America's relationship with the British during the late 18th century.

This is why when America became independent, they tried to create a government structure in which the central government was extremely limited in its scope.

How does the lyrics of Red Star Falling by Saxon relate to the cold war?
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

See below  

Explanation:

The cold war was the period following World War II when the two superpowers of the day, the Soviet Union and the United States, were economic, political, and military adversaries.

The red star was a symbol of communism, the Soviet Union, and the Red Army.  

The Red Army controlled the republics of the Soviet Union, brutally suppressing any dissent.

"A million people in the streets" refers to protest marches against communism around the world. It reminds me of the gathering of a million protesters in New York City in 1982  

"The tanks have left, the walls torn down" refers to the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989-1990. The hated wall prevented Soviet citizens from escaping to the American side.

"Live no more in fear and shame" and "Hear no more the screams of pain" refer to the  Communist Party losing its monopoly on state power in 1990. Relaxed controls on the press and on dissent led the republics of the Soviet Union to declare their autonomy from Moscow, with some withdrawing from the Union entirely.

Which describes the purpose of body paragraphs in an argumentative essay? Check all that apply.
svetoff [14.1K]
<h3>Correct answer choices are:</h3>
  1. To use quotations that enhance the position
  2. To include reasons and evidence from research
  3. To add examples that support the main idea.
<h3>Explanation:</h3>

The body paragraph in an argumentative essay is the one composed shortly after the beginning. The idea of the body paragraph is to create on the claim asserted in the introduction and present logical reasoning and related arguments to defend the assertion made above. This is mostly done via samples or case studies that are reported in detail in this paragraph. Such is the nature of an argumentative essay that any instance, claim or idea requires to have a logical support, for this view the use of analysis and accurate information is also presented to aid one's argument. Each paragraph in the body section concentrates on one singular point and describes it completely before moving onto the next.
