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.

The option which was not a function of missionaries in the Northwest was the first one - t<span>hey established posts for trading furs and other goods.
Missionaries were sent around the world to spread religion and their knowledge and help others - they were not merchants who sold furs and other goods.

What are your thoughts towards the action of the United States that took away the right of people who were Asian but not Japanes
Elza [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

I think this question is rooted in WWII when the Japanese were being put into interment camps- so I will answer based on that. The United States, regardless of race, has no justification to take away the rights of its citizens. Even in times of war, someone needs to be accused of being a spy with actual hard <em>evidence</em> before they should be subjected to that.
