Answer:

<h2>C.The social construction of race </h2>

Explanation:

Race is a social construct, it is not biological. There are no genes common to all whites and blacks so race cannot be genetically verified and it were true then the classification of people based on race would have been constant across boundaries, but it is not so because a person who is categorised as black in US might be considered white in Latin american countries.

The Greeks, Poles, Italian and Hungarian migrants were not considered to be whites in 1800s and 1900s, they tried to overcome it by showing through behaviour that they were worthy of being called white. The people form Netherlands,Ireland,Scandinavian countries and Germany were considered to be white.  

The Americans were afraid that the foreigners would bring peculiar religious practices and substandard ways of living and religious practises to this country , that would bring down this civilisation.

Which two cities in the Middle Atlantic colonies we're important centers of shipbuilding?
Dmitrij [34]
As early as the 1640s Swedish boat builders fabricated several small craft on the Delaware River in their short-lived New Sweden colony, but large-scale shipbuilding started when William Penn (1644-1718)<span> settled his great proprietary grant of Pennsylvania between 1681-1682 with skilled Quaker artisans and maritime merchants escaping the religious persecution (sufferings) in old Britain and seeking economic opportunity in the New World. In fact, six years before he founded Philadelphia, Penn had helped shipwright </span>James West (d. 1701)<span> develop a small shipyard in 1676 along the Delaware Riverfront in what later became Vine Street in the city of Philadelphia. Meanwhile, Penn recruited Welsh, Irish, Scot and English Quaker craftsmen who were involved in shipbuilding in Bristol, England, and more fully along the Thames River, already by 1682 a great center of ship construction and merchant houses. Indeed the Southwark section of London’s Thames riverfront soon gave rise to the Southwark shipbuilding and merchant community along the Delaware riverfront of Philadelphia. When the Philadelphia riverfront became too crowded with merchant docks and buildings for establishment of shipyards, many shipwrights moved a few miles upriver to the Kensington neighborhood that soon rivaled Southwark as a shipbuilding center on the Delaware River.</span>
