A group of MCC students was designing an experiment to test the effect of smoking on leopard frogs. They hypothesized that keepi

ng the frogs in a smoke-filled environment for defined periods would result in the animals developing lung cancer. However, when they searched for previously published information to shore up their hypothesis, they discovered they were quite wrong in their original assessment. Even though they were never going to go ahead with their experiment (so as not to harm frogs needlessly), they knew that a more likely outcome of putting carcinogens in the air would be the development of

Answer: skin cancer

Explanation: Carcinogens may be defined as substances which are capable of inducing the development of cancerous cells in living tissue. The students described in the scenario, were of the opinion that subjecting frogs in a smoke filled environment fro a prolonged period will result in the development of lung cancer in the frog. The hypothesis might have stemmed from the thought of the risk in which smokers are very liable of being victims of cancerous cells. However, exposing frogs to such will not result in them developing lung cancer.

Indentify three events that led to the civil war. Explain how each was an important cause of the war
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

1. Slavery

The South relied on slavery for labor to work the fields. Many people in the North believed that slavery was wrong and evil so they wanted slavery to be illegal throughout the United States. This made wealthy landowners in the South fearful that their way of life would come to an end.

2. States' Rights

Since the Constitution was first written there had been arguments about how much power the states should have versus how much power the federal government should have. The southern states felt that the federal government was taking away their rights and powers.

3. Expansion

As the United States continued to expand westward, each new state added to the country shifted the power between the North and the South. Southern states began to fear they would lose so much power that they would lose all their rights.

****While there were many political and cultural differences between the North and the South that contributed to the American Civil War, the main cause of the war was slavery.
