Answer:

February 1, 1861 – Meeting in Austin, a special convention passes the Texas Ordinance of Secession.  Within the month, Texas voters ratify the ordinance in a special election.

February 16, 1861 – General David E. Twiggs, commander of federal forces in Texas, surrenders the federal arsenal in San Antonio to secessionist volunteers led by the famed Texas Ranger Ben McCulloch, along with all additional army posts and property in Texas. Twiggs orders all 3000 Army troops stationed in Texas – mostly in defense of the Indian frontier – to march to the coast to be evacuated.

April 6-7, 1862 – Battle of Shiloh in Tennessee is first of the massive land battles of the Civil War. The 20,000 killed and wounded exceed the American casualties from the American Revolution, the War of 1812, and the Mexican War combined. Among the dead is Confederate commander Albert Sidney Johnston, famed veteran of the Texas army.

October 1862 – Fifty-three suspected Unionists are murdered by mob violence in North Texas in a series of incidents that becomes known as “The Great Hanging at Gainesville.”

January 1, 1863 – President Lincoln issues the Emancipation Proclamation.

January 1, 1863 – Under the command of General John B. Magruder, newly appointed Confederate commander of Texas, Confederate forces launch a surprise attack on Galveston and regain control of the city.

Answer:

The correct answer is:

B. Political organizations of the past bear no resemblance to the political organizations of today.

Explanation:

What the author means implicitly in his text, is that participation in the political processes of our day is not as real as it was a few years ago. Since today due to technology, people are not really present in the debates and their opinions are handled anonymously. Previously, participation in political activities was carried out in person, which gave it a real touch according to what the author expresses between the lines.

Yanka [14]

A symmetric multiprocessor organization has a number of potential advantages over a uniprocessor organization including performance, availability, incremental growth, and scaling.

A symmetric multiprocessor contains two or more identical processors that share a single main memory. Multiple processors can be separate chips or multiple cores on the same chip. Multiprocessors allow more threads to run simultaneously and certain threads to run faster. It's easy to run multiple threads concurrently.

Threads are simply split between processors. Unfortunately, the average PC user needs only a few threads running at a time. Making a particular thread run faster is much more difficult. Programmers must split existing threads into multiple threads running on each processor.
