Answer:

Option: C. They decided to fill in nearby bodies of water to create more land.

Explanation:

Boston began tearing down its hills to make new land that remained filled with wetlands and marshes. Boston surrounded with bodies of water, mainly swamp.  The peninsula had several hills, including Pemberton Hill, Beacon Hill, Fort Hill, Mt. Vernon, and Copp’s Hill. Several water bodies, including ponds and wetlands filled with soil from hills. The new plot used for building housing. As more waterbodies filled, the land became available for the people to settle in. As it process, the city of Boston was becoming large and as well in population in coming years.

1) What do you see as the most important requests in the Olive Branch Petition?
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

1. The most important requests include;

a. The repeal of the statutes and regulations imposed by the King on the colonists.

b. The request for peace between the King and the Subjects so as to avoid the outbreak of war.

2. The British American Colonists are seeking peaceful independence from the King's rule.

3. They speak respectfully of the King and the Parliament asserting their loyalty to his rule.

4. They seem to blame the King. This is because of his imposition of exorbitant taxes and levies ensuing from the Stamp Act on the people.

5. I would have considered their request for peace by inviting them to a meeting where their grievances would be discussed.

Explanation:

The Olive Branch Petition written by John Dickinson was drafted at a time when the colonists were seeking independence from the King. This was as a result of the sufferings they were made to undergo, stemming from the high taxes imposed on them to compensate the dwindling resources spent by the King in the war with France. They clearly wanted independence but without the consequence of war.  They also were asserting loyalty to the King. This seemed like two requests that could be hardly granted at the same time.

King George III did not read the letters not to talk of granting the request for he already declared war on the colonists prior to the time when they tendered the letters.

“A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall
solniwko [45]

“That the subjects . . . may have arms for their defense” is the right listed in the English Bill of Rights and is the basis for the Second Amendment to the US Constitution.

<h3>What the second amendment ensures?</h3>

The Second Amendment of the US Constitution reads: "A nicely regulated Militia, being vital to the safety of a free State, the rights of the humans to preserve and endure Arms, shall now no longer be infringed."

The amendment was created in more hostile times to guarantee people and states' right to self-defense, and it enables US residents to keep and bear arms for such purposes.

The missing information in the question is given below:

“that levying money for or to the use of the Crown . . . without grant of Parliament . . . is illegal” “that it is the right of the subjects to petition the king” “That the raising or keeping a standing army . . . unless it is with consent of Parliament, is against law” “That the subjects . . . may have arms for their defense”

Thus, “That the subjects . . . may have arms for their defense” is the right listed in the English Bill of Rights and is the basis for the Second Amendment to the US Constitution.
