History

Answer and Explanation:

An acequia is a community-operated watercourse, canal or ditch that is generally used for irrigation purposes. An acequia community consists of people who use and share irrigation water amongst themselves in order to sustain their lives and environment. Users in the community share water by using crowbars, wooden spades and rawhides that are moved by mules and oxen which convey irrigation water and help in operating and maintaining irrigation ditches or canals all year round. Each acequia community has someone who is in charge of the system, and works together with judges and inspectors who also assist in making sure that each component of the acequia is functioning properly and adequately. Typically, the users use/divert water for domestic purposes, to grow food, and maintain the environment. Whenever any amount of water remains after operations, it is returned to the ditch, canal, or river which is the source of the irrigation water.

Answer:

Water distribution is first go to those in need and the amount of water is based on the size of the irrigated fields. Users must clear weeds, keep animals out of the ditches, and be sure not to block or dam the ditches because farmers downstream also have rights to the water.

Olenka [21]

Answer:

doughface

Explanation:

Term doughface implies a person, most usually a politician, who is impressionable and easy to sway in his ideas. More concretely, this term was used to describe the Northener democratic politician who is allied with the Southerner democrats more than Northen ones.

<u>President Buchanan became known by this name because of his politics that preferred the South</u>. For his cabinet, he chose the majority of the people who were southerners, and even those three from the north were considered also to be doughface. <u>He held very pro-southern principles. These ideas were seen unfavorably by the North and his Democratic party and therefore divided it.</u>
