B. Both protect citizens from government oppression.
C. Both reflect ideas of Enlightenment thinkers.
D. Both create governments featuring separation of powers.
Answer:
C. Both reflect ideas of Enlightenment thinkers.
Explanation:
The statement that accurately describes a similarity between the U.S. Constitution and the Declaration of Independence is option C because they both reflect the idea of enlightened thinkers.
The Declaration of Independence is a historical document that contains evidence of America officially separating from Great Britain.
The document contains the unhappiness at the government and the need for independence.
This document and the US Constitution did not set up any type of government which renders the other options as false.
Enlightened thinkers like Locke and Hobbes helped influence these two historical documents.
What gave them an advantage is economic prosperity due to rich soil and development of plantations based on slave labor. Many profit was accumulated from crops (tobacco) and also cotton. Later on in the 1800s when Eli Whitney created the cotton gin it created a boom in the slave industry and increased largely by 71%. After that the tool allowed mass production in textile industries.
The conjugation of the verb "design" to "designed", without any auxiliary verb such as "have" or "do", shows the use of the 'simple past" tense (also known as preterite), whose principal function is to place a completed action or situation in a moment before "now".
What tense is the underlined verb in the sentence? The architect designed a daring structure.
D. Past
Muhammad, who they believed was their final prophet
