Based on the excerpt, the conclusion that can be drawn about the size and lifestyle of American Indian groups at the time of contact with Europeans that would contradict Document C and Document D is that <u>the American Indian groups were not bigger in size and lifestyle than what was suggested in Documents C and D.</u>
Native Americans, also known as First Americans, American Indians, are the Indigenous peoples of the United States, including Hawaii and territories of the United States, and other times limited to the mainland. There are 574 federally recognized tribes living within the US, about half of which are associated with Indian reservations.
<h3>Why are the first settlers of America called Indians?</h3>
The word Indian came to be used because <u>Christopher Columbus</u> repeatedly expressed the mistaken belief that he had reached the shores of South Asia. Convinced he was correct, <u>Columbus</u> fostered the use of the term Indios (originally, “person from the Indus valley”) to refer to the peoples of the so-called New World.
Therefore, the correct answer is as given above

In the plantations, male and female slaves were both responsible for all the planting, harvesting and cleaning of the fields under extremely harsh and inhumane conditions. The harvesting was carried out by broad curved machetes and afterwards the ripe sugar canes were loaded into carts and taken to the sugar cane mills erected in the plantation estates to be processed into sugar and its derivatives.
In the sugar cane mills, during the harvesting periods work was 24 hours none stop to meet up with supply deadlines as most of the machinery used were slow and inefficient.
In contrast to what happened in the plantation fields, the slave masters preferred female slaves working in the sugar cane mills. Theirs was a particularly hazardous and life-threatening responsibility as it involved pushing the sugar cane stalks into wooden and metal rollers to crush and extract the sugar cane juice and also operating the sugar cane broiler.
This preference was because:
- For economic reasons, though the slaves were bought, the human value of the slaves was never considered. The value of the end product was highly priced. Human slave life was easily replaced by the masters.
- And since working the sugar mills was a highly hazardous activity lives were frequently lost as the mill rollers were know to have crushed to death and maimed many slaves. In most parts of the world where African slaves were used, female slaves were sold at a cheaper value than their male counterparts. Therefore it stands to reason that the slaves masters would prefer the female slaves regarded as "cheaper replacements"
- Since work in the mills had to work 24 hours none stop, the environment had to be washed, swept frequently and kept clean to sustain a minimum level of cleaness and higiene. Female slaves were considered ideal for this as well.
Answer:
Paid a salary that can not be reduced.
Explanation:
They must be given a set pay that can not be reduced no matter the circumstances and it can not be raised either.
Which it wouldn't bother me cause they get paid 277,000 a year.
For an example: Woman were allowed to vote. The 19th amendment guaranteed the right to all woman, to vote.
Hope this helps!:)

In the book he wrote, Equiano displayed his belief that free blacks often suffered worse conditions than slaves. In the W<span>est Indies, he met a free black </span>man<span> whose name was Joseph </span>Clipson<span>. </span>Clipson's<span> story was the basis of his realization. </span>Clipson<span> had freedom but was aggressively spoken to by a Bermuda captain who insisted that </span>Clipson<span> was a slave and that he had to take him to Jamaica. </span>Clipson protested but he was ignored and was forced to go aboard the captain's ship. Equiano wrote on his book that he had thought only slavery was dreadful, but the condition of a free negro was just as equally so. Their freedom was minimal and they lived in fear of constant abuses. There were no courts to listen to them and no law would protect their properties. When Equiano became a free black, he also encountered the same situation. Free blacks lived in an uncertain middle ground between slavery and freedom.<span> </span>
