The correct answer is D. The Dust Bowl was an ecological situation associated with the Great Depression.

The phenomenon of the 1930s known as the Dust Bowl was one of the worst ecological disasters of the 20th century. The drought affected the plains and prairies that extend from the Gulf of Mexico to Canada. The drought lasted at least between 1932 and 1939, and was preceded by a long period of above average rainfall. The dust bowl effect was caused by persistent drought conditions, favored by years of soil management practices that left it susceptible to the action of wind forces. The soil, stripped of moisture, was lifted by the wind in great clouds of dust and sand so thick they hid the sun.

The Dust Bowl multiplied the effects of the Great Depression in the region and caused the largest population displacement in a short period of time in the history of the United States. Three million people left their farms during the 1930s, and more than half a million emigrated to other states, especially to the west.

Cómo conseguirían su trabajo los miembros de la cámara baja?
aev [14]

Answer:

Para ser miembro de la cámara baja de un país, por ejemplo, de la cámara de los comunes en el Reino Unido, o de la cámara de representantes en Estados Unidos, éstos deben ganar una elección con el fin de ser elegidos como representantes de un segmento de la población, un segmento que es menos numero que el que es representado por un miembro de una cámara alta, por ejemplo un senador.

Los miembros de las cámaras bajas suelen tener un carácter más local, menos aristocrático, y más popular que los miembros de las cámaras altas. Ésto debido a que en su origen las cámaras bajas fueron desarrolladas con el fin de balancear el poder de las cámaras altas, las cuales estaban dominadas por la aristocracia, el clero, y los poderes económicos.
