Answer:

Lincoln stated he was against miscegenation and allowing blacks to serve as jurors. While President, as the American Civil War progressed, Lincoln advocated or implemented anti-racist policies including the Emancipation Proclamation and limited suffrage for African Americans.

Answer: It marginally depends.

Explanation:

Most would say yes. I’m actually leaning more towards no on this, but I had a teacher who constantly said the Emancipation Proclamation was a war tactic. Let me explain;

For a long time, African Americans were not allowed to enlist in the army, not even in the Union side. That was directly in Lincoln’s control.

Why was it a war tactic? Well, that lies in the question of were they really free? The common misconception of the South, as my teacher once put it, is that “The South didn’t fight for slavery. They fought for the rights for states to have a choice in what they enact.” It still meant slavery, but not just slavery.

The Emancipation Proclamation, according to said teacher, only freed slaves to ruffle the south’s feathers. Let’s be honest, the proclamation didn’t work anyway, so it doesn’t even mean much, most plantation owners never even told their slaves this happened! Maybe a few did let their slaves go free.

Want a good example of a abolitionist? John Brown is the perfect example of an abolitionist. He was a jack of all trades, supporting both women and slave’s rights. He’s not the best guy, but he actually made valiant efforts to change the tides of slavery (such as his infamous Raid on Harper’s Ferry to start a slave-armed insurrection.) Some even argue he started the war.

Lincoln, if you compare him to Brown, Douglass, or Tubman, really wasn’t an abolitionist.

Answer:    Cannon-Bard

Explanation:  Unlike some other theories that deal with the occurrence of emotions and physiological changes in the body, according to this theory, physiological changes in the body and the occurrence of emotions occur <em>at the same time</em>. So a physiological change, such as a pounding of the heart in this case, and a sense of excitement came at the same time due to an external event, in this case when Jim approached Alice.

The reason for this claim is that the physiological changes in the body and the feeling of emotion are separate, i.e independent from each other and located in different parts of the brain, so they can simultaneously react to a stimulus. Physiological changes do not have to occur first, and only then emotions, which would be the case if they were not separate, that is, they were not independent.

Well personally, I think that the plastic manufacturing will be a big problem in the environment, because plastic is non-biodegradable. We already reached the limit of plastic the world can hold in August of 2017.
Since plastics aren't able to disintegrate, I'm sure many plants, animals, and humans will die because they've eaten plastic particles. 90 percent of our water has plastic in it, even if it's "filtered", and even if you can't see it. As I said before, plastic is biodegradable, which means it doesn't compost, but slowly breaks into smaller and smaller pieces.
Hope this helps!:)<span />

Dima020 [189]

Answer:

The correct answer to the question: Based on these observations, what type of subsistence pattern do you think this group is using, would be: the hunter-gathering system of subsistence.

Explanation:

The case being exposed in this question is the typical example of the nomadic hunter-gatherers. This group of people will tend to be small, and they will subsist entirely on the resources readily available to them from the land and the hunting they can make close to their place of habitation. They did not have a stable place of living and tended to move from place to place in search of new readily, and easily acquirable, resources. They literally depended on what they could gather from plants, and the animals they could hunt from the wild. They did not farm, establish stable dwellings and did not domesticate animals.
