Answer:

The correct answer would be the first one: They established posts for trading furs and other goods. This was not a function played by missionaries, of any religious denomination, in the Northwest.

Explanation:

The movement towards the Northwest, especially in America, happened initially as a response from fur traders who wished to expand their operation from the east to the west. These fur traders started arriving in the Northwest around the 1830´s and not much later, between the 1830´s and 1840´s, missionaries, especially of the Methodist denomination, headed by people such as Jason Lee, and others, from the Presbyterian church, settled in these newly established regions. Their purpose, in moving out west, was to evangelize, spread the Christian faith, especially to the Native peoples, and they used the established trading posts as footholds to be able to do so. As part of this, they not only sought to convert people, but they also began establishing churches and schools for Bible study and they also took their own knowledge, including on healthcare and sanitation, to help the Native peoples. This is why the correct answer is the first.

There is evidence that the monumental decision in _____________ in 1973 had a direct impact on crime years later.
ra1l [238]
<span>There is evidence that the monumental decision in Roe v. Wade in 1973 had a direct impact on crime years later. If more poor and unwed women were able to end their pregnancies, fewer poor children were being born into lives of neglect and poverty. Since crime is a natural outgrowth of being poor and disadvantaged, and unwanted, there would be less crime because those people never existed.</span>

Which statement best describes an advantage of direct democracy over indirect democracy?
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

The answer is C. It can better prevent political leaders from serving their own interests.

Explanation:

One of the major flaws in indirect democracy , which means a group of people select an individual to represent themselves is that those who are selected and voted by people eventually ends up serving for themselves and their interests rather than serving the people.

In direct democracy however, thus does not become a problem as each individual represents their pl political stance by themselves.
