Answer:

Compared to his other achievements, the formation of the Texas Railroad Commission is good because the much needed regulation of railroads and such from potential extortion by corporations. This was important because it protected consumers from excessive rate costs and unfair railroad railway practices. The TRC had another goal in mind as it took pride in carefully taking care of railroads leaving room for economic growth that would positively impact the economy. Not only that, but in the future years the TRC would soon regulate much more than just railroads, soon handling pipelines along with oil and gas. Through time, the TRC also took part in several movements making Texas better. This was all because of Governer Hoggs approval and belief that the TRC was for the betterment of Texas.

god i hope that was worth it. i just revisted texas history for u lol

Student answers will vary but could include the following ideas: Hogg had long championed the cause of the “common man,” especially farmers. One of the most important battles faced by farmers in the late 1800s was unfair treatment by rail companies, especially in regard to the rates farmers were charged. The Texas Railroad Commission ended unfair shipping prices and price fixing. This was not only extremely helpful to Texas farmers, it also helped increase production in other Texas industries. The commission was so successful that it began to regulate and reform other industries such as the oil industry. The work of the commission had both short-term and long-term positive effects on the Texas economy.

It is speculated that H. floresiensis and H. sapiens may have lived on Flores concurrently. Suppose researchers obtained mitocho
qwelly [4]

Answer:

Based on this data, The H.sapiens most likely to have lived at Flores would be  an ancestor of Indonesian H.sapiens

Explanation:

  • If H.florensiensis and H.sapiens lived together one would expect some sort of interbreeding between the two. This would make them share more genetic information.
  • The DNA would differ in a few base pairs- enough for them to be different species but small enough to indicate interbreeding.
  • This is the case with the Indonesian H.sapiens, the DNA sequence differs by 28 base pairs.
  • The average North African and North American H.sapiens differs by 51 and 53 base pairs respectively - this is too much of a difference to indicate interbreeding
  • The average H.sapiens differs from the other by 21 base pairs - this was a control to show that interbreeding populations will share a large proportion of DNA sequence similarity
