Answer: Christopher Columbus and Fernando Magellan.

Explanation:

Christopher Columbus was born in Genoa (Italy). He ended up in a combination of life circumstances in Portugal and then in Spain. Christopher Columbus discovered America in 1492. He sailed under the banner of the King of Spain. With this discovery, Columbus gained a great deal of popularity in Spanish. Columbus was convinced that he was in the waters of Asia, in fact at the time of his arrival, he was in the Bahamas.

Fernando Magellan was born in Portugal. In the sixteenth century, Portugal introduced big names in the world of seafaring and exploration. Magellan was enthusiastic, and to sail the world, he sought the help of the Portuguese king. After the king rejected his plan, he presented the King of Spain to Charles V. The king enthusiastically accepted him because Portugal was the direct rival of Spain. Thus, in about 1519, Fernando Magellan led the first expedition to sail the world.

Why does america celebrate cinco de mayo more than mexico?
lianna [129]

The real story of Cinco de Mayo weaves together two concurrent wars—the French intervention in Mexico (also known as The Maximillian Affair) and the American Civil War. On May 5, 1862, defending Mexican forces under Ignacio Zaragoza defeated Napoleon III's French army at Puebla, one of the most important Spanish colonial cities in Mexico. At the time, the French army was considered to be the most powerful fighting force in the world, and the unlikely Mexican victory resulted in a decree by then-Mexican President Benito Juárez that a celebration of the battle be held each year on May 5th. Cinco de Mayo was born, but it was about to be kidnapped.

As the French were making war with Mexico, the American Confederacy was courting Napoleon's help in its conflict with the United States. At the time of the Battle of Puebla, the Confederacy had strung together impressive victories over the Union forces. According to some historians, the French, who made war with Mexico on the pretext of collecting debt, planned to use Mexico as a "base" from which they could help the Confederacy defeat the North, and the Mexican victory at Puebla made the French pause long enough for the Union army to grow stronger and gain momentum. Had the French won at Puebla, some contend, the outcome of the American Civil War could have been much different, as the French and Confederates together could have taken control of the continent from the Mason Dixon line to Guatemela, installing an oligarchical, slave-holding government.

patriot [66]

Osteoporosis refers to a disorder featured by diminished bone mass and loss of bone tissue, which may result in fragile and weak bones.  


Osteoporosis can be caused by having an excess amount of calcium year after year. Thus, in order to inhibit the consumption of additional calcium, the body constitutes as less vitamin D as probable. Hyperthyroidism greatly enhances both the consumption of calcium into the bones and expulsion from the bones, ultimately resulting in osteoporosis.  


In an experiment, Dr. Travis examined the effects of calcium intake on osteoporosis, a condition that causes an increased risk of bone fractures. The amount of calcium is the independent variable. The risk of bone fractures is the dependent variable .
