Which of the following situations describes a historian using a primary source to learn about u.s president George Washington
kherson [118]
Maybe while we wait for the questioner to provide the options, we can do a little general discussion here about what it means to use a primary source. Primary sources are things that come from persons directly involved in the events or lives being studied.  So, any diary entries or letters of George Washington himself would count as primary sources.  So would any official proclamations or letters or government documents that came from Washington's pen as president.  Or the testimony of contemporaries of his who lived or worked with him would also count as primary source accounts.

So if you're looking for a historian's use of primary sources, look for the ways in which he's using historical material directly connected to the life of the person being studied.  In fact, if you were able to look at a set of the false teeth George Washington wore, that would be a primary source too.  They have a set at the Mount Vernon home/museum.  And by looking at those actual dentures, you'd see they weren't made out of wood like the old (false) story says!

Why might the Church be concerned about a heliocentric explanation of the universe? Why was the church concerned about scientifi
Mademuasel [1]

The correct answers to these open questions are the following.

Why might the Church be concerned about a heliocentric explanation of the universe?

Because in those Middle Ages times, the Catholic Church was so powerful and forced people to believe only what the church said. The high clergy of the church punished people who dared to think otherwise under the justification that no human could be against the will of God. Those were the obscure and horrible times of the inquisition.

The Church saw the heliocentric view of the solar system as a challenge to its authority because the heliocentric view, if correct, might mean God did not put humans at the center of the universe. And that would mean losing its power.

That is why the church was concerned about scientific theories such as the Heliocentric Theory, developed by Nicolaus Copernicus.

The church did not want the scientific method to explain the natural phenomena that had been attributed to the glory of God. And that was exactly what science did, to prove the church wrong with ideas such as that it was the Earth and other planets the ones that revolved around the Sun.

Why might it be important to briefly consider the peoples’ history of the Valley of Mexico, Central America, and South America b
schepotkina [342]

Answer:

It is vital to consider the history of the people because it represents the foundation for which the society of the American Indian was developed. In addition, a majority of the indigenous people conducted business with and moved to the Americas. This makes them important in the history of America. The history of these people encourages us to think differently about the common history of the US because the people also contributed to the growth and development of the country.
