Answer:

The correct response is the fourth option. People in northern and western Europe started planting and eating potatoes as an important source of nutrition.

Explanation:

Potatoes are a tuber crop that originates from the Andean region. As of 2014, potatoes are the fourth-largest food crop in the world with the others at the top of the list being maize (corn), wheat, and rice. Potatoes became especially important to the cultures of Northern Europe, especially Ireland, Scotland and the Scandanavian countries that have short growing seasons and have populations who need products that store well for long winters. This is one of the properties of the potato. Unfortunately, there was a large famine called the Great Irish Famine due to a fungus that infested the potato harvest in 1845. There was not much genetic diversity of the species that were introduced and this contributed to the scale of the collapse.

What were the main objectives of Radicals in 19th century​
pochemuha

Answer:

The Radical movement arose in the late 18th century to support parliamentary reform, with additional aims including lower taxes and the abolition of sinecures.[1] John Wilkes's reformist efforts in the 1760s as editor of The North Briton and MP were seen as radical at the time, but support dropped away after the Massacre of St George's Fields in 1768. Working class and middle class "Popular Radicals" agitated to demand the right to vote and assert other rights including freedom of the press and relief from economic distress, while "Philosophic Radicals" strongly supported parliamentary reform, but were generally hostile to the arguments and tactics of the Popular Radicals. However, the term “Radical” itself, as opposed to “reformer” or “Radical Reformer”, only emerged in 1819 during the upsurge of protest following the successful conclusion of the Napoleonic War.[2] Henry "Orator" Hunt was the main speaker at the Manchester meeting in 1819 that ended in the Peterloo Massacre; Hunt was elected MP for the Preston division in 1830-32.
