The Indian Removal Act took place in the first half of the 1800s under the presidencies of Andrew Jackson and Martin van Buren and directly led to the Trail of Tears, which resulted in the death of many members of tribes in the American South. It was considered controversial because the Supreme Court ruled in favor of the tribes' cause wherein the state of Georgia (which was actively seeking to evict the Indian inhabitants) was told it had no right to force their removal. Nevertheless, the president ordered their removal.

I believe the answer is: Jackson went against the Supreme Court

At that time, the Supreme Court ruled in favor of the tribes' because under the constitution of Georgia, the government does not has the right to remove them from their place of living, but for some reason president Jackson ignore this ruling and remove them anyway.

Which upheaval of nature does Shakespeare use to symbolize and reflect the topsy-turvy turbulence of ambitious murder?

alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

During medieval times, it was believed that the well-being of a country was related to the goodness and justice of its king. If the King was good and just, then the nation will have good harvests and good weather. If there was political order, then there would be natural order.

For example in Macbeth, shakespeare shows this connection between the political and natural world: when Macbeth disrupts the social and political order by the 'ambitious murdering' of Duncan and bringing injustice to the throne, nature goes off the rails. Incredible storms rage, the earth tremors, animals go insane and eat each other. The unnatural events of the physical world emphasize the horror of Macbeth and Lady Macbeth's ambition.

Answer: B) James-Lange Theory of emotion

Explanation: In essence, this theory proposes that the emotions and physiological change that occurs in the body due to external event, stimuli etc., do not occur simultaneously. According to this theory, physiological changes first occur in response to an external stimulus, and a certain emotion occurs in response to these physiological changes. The emotion thus arose in fact as an interpretation of the physiological response to stimuli from the environment.
