Answer: b. Sheila almost drowned, but she was able to keep her head out of the water and focus on swimming to shore

Explanation: The resistance stage of the general adaptation syndrome refers to one of the three stages described by Hans Selye on the physiological changes or response the body undergoes when experiencing a stress routine.

The resistance stage is the second stage which occurs after the alarm reaction stage which describes the initial shock experienced once the body is first experiences a stress regime. During the resistance phase, the body begins to stabilize gradually and also remains alert. However at this stage, the individual can adjust and make a more relaxed decision.

In the scenario above, After Sheila had overcame the alarm stage in which she almost drowned, she became a bit relaxed and was able to concentrate in swimming to the shore.

What was a consequence of the Massachusetts and Connecticut colonial governments' decisions to sell land directly to individuals
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

A consequence of selling land to individuals was that money, rather than Puritan church membership, became the prerequisite for land acquisition.

Explanation:

New England developed differently than the other colonies because there was initially a very devout focus on the Puritan ideals so later colonists from England tended to settle in the middle colonies and in the South. In the early colonial days, the settlements in New England were usually fishing villages or farming hamlets along the rivers where there was more fertile land.  The general population of New England was highly literate compared to other colonial communities because individual study of the bible was important. The soil in the New England Colonies was not as fertile as further south. There was however an abundance of timber to use in construction and for export  back to England, where there was a shortage of wood. In addition, the furs from wildlife were also traded and became a commodity. Land was abundant and relatively inexpensive initially. There evolved a population of wealthy merchants who built water-powered textile mills along the rivers which led to early industrialization in this region.

What is the difference between the Islamic Empire and the Byzantine Empire (other then Muslim and Christian)?
Olin [163]
Assuming you mean the Ottoman Empire, the Turks had a massively different mindset. The Byzantine were not religiously tolerant and they actively sought out the conversion of the Turks and other Muslim population. While the ottomans actively gave control of their own land to the Dhmiri a christian estate that payed moderate taxes for religious freedoms. Also the Byzantines had no African or Asian Ambitions like the Ottomans. The Greeks were more interested in Italy the anything else. The Ottomans on the other hand set up one of the largest transcontinental empire ever seen.<span />

Identify the statement that describes the relationship between property and voting rights in America.
Andrews [41]

Answer: <u>By 1860 in all but one state, land ownership was not required to vote</u>

Explanation:

Constitution gives every citizen right to participate in the process of forming the government by the way of bestowing upon them right to vote.  But who has this right to vote has always been a big question as over period of time, the eligibility criteria has undergone many changes.  

By the year 1790 many states in U.S. made the property or land ownership as the qualification for exercising the right to vote as a result of which women and blacks were disqualified from voting. But with time this qualification criterion was also changed and by 1860 except in one state, land ownership was not necessary for exercising the voting rights.
