Answer:
True
Explanation:
The Compromise of 1850 was the result of the debate over the equal representation of pro-slavery States in Congress. With the Mexican Cession, the balance seemed to favor the abolitionist States. Therefore a crisis began, with the most important matter being the incorporation of California. President Taylor felt that the matter was used by the South as a bargain chip, and finally declared California a State. Clay then brokered the Compromise, and its results were administered by Franklin Pierce who supported the general lines of the Compromise, but failed in the end to address at full the growing abyss between slaver's States and the anti-slavery States. The result was the crisis of 1860 and the break of the Civil War.
On May 12, 1949, one of the first Cold War crises came to an end. The Soviet Union decides to lift the 11-month-long blockade against West Berlin. The three western sectors of Berlin were unified as West Berlin and placed under West German administration.
The correct answer is - the heliocentric system.
By using the telescope, Galileo Galilei managed to observe the movements of the Sun, Moon, the planets in the Solar System, and he was mapping their movements on the sky, and also he was comparing their movements to the Earth's position. With this, he managed to notice that insted of the popular belief that the Sun, Moon, and the other planets are moving around the Earth, that it is actually the opposite of it, and that the Sun was the center of our Solar System, and that all the planets and moons were orbiting around it, while the only object that hold its position as it was initially thought was the Moon, because it orbits around our planet. So Galileo contributed to the theory of the heliocentric system.
