The correct answer is B. Accidents with machinery were common and frequently resulted in injury.

Explanation:

The Industrial Revolution that occurred during the 18th and 19th century had a Great impact on most societies, one of the most important was the creation of multiple factories to manufacture products. However, the conditions for workers were not the best, as besides working for more than ten hours, factories did not have any safety conditions that protected workers from accidents with machines or other situations such as fires or explosions. Because of this, it was common during the 18th century and the first half of the 19th century that workers had accidents and resulted injured, this included minor injuries, important injuries that had permanent consequences and event injuries that were the caused of worker deaths, including children that were employed during this time. Thus, the factor that made conditions of factories dangerous during the first half of the nineteenth century was that accidents with machinery were common and frequently resulted in injury.

Describe how the expansion of the electorate occured in the united states, through the five suffrage stages.
julsineya [31]
The first stage was based on religion and ownership of property. At first, only those of certain religious beliefs could vote but this was abandoned quickly and also only those who owned property could vote but this was abandoned too and a huge number of voters got their suffrage rights as not you could be from any religious background and social class and still vote

The second expansion occurred after the civil war. Following the civil war, the electorate got increased when African-American people were given voting rights. Although racist states found ways to legally disenfranchise them and prevent them from voting, they still had voting rights in theory and those in free states practiced them.

The third expansion was when women were allowed to vote when the 19th amendment was ratified and women were allowed to vote in all states. Before that, women could not vote and now they could which means that the amount of possible votes doubled since there is almost the same number of women as there is of men.

The fourth expansion happened when the civil rights struggle occurred and laws were introduced to prevent disenfranchisement of African-Americans. This brought a lot of voters from southern states where voting was not possible for them in praxis since they had to pass tests or pay fees or similar things to vote

The fifth was later when youth was allowed to vote. It was established that states may not raise the minimum age requirement for voting over the age of 18, meaning that all states had to allow all voters age 18 and up to vote if they wanted to. This brought a lot of young voters since some states made it mandatory to have a minimum of 21 for example.

Why did the Europeans treat the slaves so badly during the Middle Passage? A. A slave who was treated badly was considered more
Ugo [173]

Answer B: They viewed them as property rather than as people

The Middle Passage was the stage of the triangular trade in which millions of Africans were forcibly transported to the New World as part of the Atlantic slave trade. Ships departed Europe for African markets with manufactured goods, which were traded for purchased or kidnapped Africans, who were transported across the Atlantic as slaves; the slaves were then sold or traded for raw materials, which would be transported back to Europe to complete the voyage. Voyages on the Middle Passage were large financial undertakings, generally organized by companies or groups of investors rather than individuals

Slaves' treatment was horrific because the captured African men and women were considered less than human; they were "cargo", or "goods", and treated as such; they were transported for marketing.
