Answer:

A. the seasoning of enslaved Africans

Explanation:

The term 'Seasoning' Refers to a disease outbreak that enslaved Africans gt after they're being put in a different environment.

Generally, African slaves were kept in a terrible condition, with very little hygiene, high humidity, and not enough sunlight.  This caused many African slaves in Jamaica obtain various type of Tropical diseases, specifically Malaria  (which is caused by mosquitoes bite).

The slave owners did not see any merit in treating the slaves, so most of the ones that infected were just left there without any medication. This explains the really high mortality rate.

What motivated the Red Guards to create chaos during the Cultural
vazorg [7]

Answer:

The right answer here is B. A desire to destroy anything that could threaten communism in China.

Explanation:

The Red Guards turned into one of the most effective and dealiest instruments of Chairman Mao Zedong´s manipulation during the Cultural Revolution. The real purpose of Mao was to destroy and remove from office his political opponents and critics, thus consolidating his position as Red China´s paramount leader. He used his wife Jiang Qing and other radicals to launch and promote the campaign. Its official aim was to destroy vestiges of the old, traditional, "reactionary" Chinese culture - such as Confucianism, Buddhism - and burgueois, rightist elements in the Communist Party. The Red Guards movement started in universities and schools. Mao was delighted about them and allowed their abuses. They publicly denounced, vilified, beat and humilliated hundreds of thousands of innocent people. They were a magnificent weapon of caos and destruction.

Why do you think the Republicans rejected negotiating a peace settlement in 1864 and instead demanded the unconditional surrende
algol [13]

It is first important to understand that not all Republicans rejected a peace settlement with the Confederates during or after the Civil War, but it was a smaller group within the party that totally and completely refused and demanded a full surrender without conditions to the South. This group was called the Radical Republicans and they began around 1854 and went until after the Reconstruction of 1877. They were the ones who were responsible for the establishment of the Fourteenth Ammendment and they radically opposed any negotiations with the South on the basis of their being totally against segregation and slavery. Some other factions within the Republican party, including Lincoln, were more moderate and were willing to give in to some of the demands from the Confederates, especially ont he issue of slaves.

The reason for these radical Republicans not wanting to negotiate with the Southern Confederates, was that they refused to allow slavery to continue. They were pushing for all slaves in the U.S to be freed, for segregation to be prohibited, for rights for black people to be established in the United States and even went as far as pushing for civil rights, including suffrage, for African Americans. But the South, of course, refused these terms. This is why neither Radical Republicans, nor Confederate members would have been able to settle anything in a negotiation. There was no common ground for the toughest issue of all; slavery.

What benefits do Mexico, Canada, and the United States gain by maintaining a trade agreement among the three nations
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

Quadrupled Trade

Lowered Prices

Increased Economic Growth

Created Jobs

Increased Foreign Direct Investment

Reduced Government Spending

Explanation:

Between the United States, Canada, and Mexico, NAFTA covered the largest area under a free trade agreement. One of the positive effects of NAFTA was increased trade, economic output, foreign investment, and better consumer prices. NAFTA went into effect under the Clinton administration in 1994. The purpose of the deal was to boost trade within North America between Canada, the United States, and Mexico. It also aimed to get rid of trade barriers between the three parties, as well as most taxes and tariffs on goods imported and exported by each.Canada has seen the strongest gains among the three NAFTA countries, though, again, it is difficult to attribute direct causation, particularly given that Canada and the United States had a free-trade deal that predated NAFTA.
