B. An increase in knowledge as well as written books
Answer: Under the Great Law, democratic principles were built into the decision making process: equality among all chiefs, in the Grand Council with the same level of authority. ... men were nominated as chiefs (male authority) by women (female authority) both men and women belonged to the mother's clan (giving women authority)
All of the tribe thought the sachem was very wise and did the best thing for the tribe. He also had a council to help him make decisions, called sagamores. The tribe would present the sachem with gifts. The sachem was also in charge of the land the tribe lived on and decided about selling any of the land. Explanation:
Correct answer choice is:
He fought to unify Vietnam under a communist system.

In February of this year, the Human Fertilization and Embryology Authority in the United Kingdom approved a request by the Francis Crick Institute in London to modify human embryos using the new gene editing technique CRISPR-Cas9. This is the second time human embryos have been employed in such research, and the first time their use has been sanctioned by a national regulatory authority. The scientists at the Institute hope to cast light on early embryo development—work which may eventually lead to safer and more successful fertility treatments.
The embryos, provided by patients undergoing in vitro fertilization, will not be allowed to develop beyond seven days. But in theory—and eventually in practice—CRISPR could be used to modify disease-causing genes in embryos brought to term, removing the faulty script from the genetic code of that person’s future descendants as well. Proponents of such “human germline editing” argue that it could potentially decrease, or even eliminate, the incidence of many serious genetic diseases, reducing human suffering worldwide. Opponents say that modifying human embryos is dangerous and unnatural, and does not take into account the consent of future generations.
