The age of Enlightenment was a period of scientific and philosophical development

____________________________________________________

Definition:

Age of Enlightenment:

This was a period in time form the late 17th to the early 18th century. This primarily took place in Europe, but later went on to North America. The people that were participating in this were thinking that they were increasing human culture and intellect after the period of the dark Middle Ages.

____________________________________________________

Explanation:

The reason why answer choice "D). a period of scientific and philosophical development" would be the correct answer is because this is the definition of what occurred during the Age of Enlightenment.

The age of Enlightenment is known for when most of the philosophers came and started to learn about the existence of humans, how the mind works, culture, languages, and values. This is pretty much a time where philosophers learned more about humans and the importance of humans. During the Age of Enlightenment, this would also be known as the "Century of Philosophy," meaning that this was the time where philosophy started to become big and skyrocket. Science was also another thing that blew up during the Age of Enlightenment, the amount of scientist started to increase. The other answer choices wouldn't be the right description for the Age of Enlightenment. This is the reason why this answer choice would be correct.

____________________________________________________

Why the other answer choices would be incorrect:

The reason why answer choice "A). a period also known as the Age of Evolution" would be incorrect because:

During the Age of Enlightenment, people did not study how humans or other people have evolved over time. This is something that would be studied by someone else in another time. This is the reason why this answer choice would be incorrect.

The reason why answer choice "B). the time period when U.S. citizens realized slavery was wrong" would be incorrect because:

This would be the time where people didn't see slavery as something wrong. It was most likely that people during this time still supported slavery and probably had slaves of their own. This is the reason why this answer choice would be incorrect.

The reason why answer choice "C). the time period when most started to believe it was important to protect the natural environment" would be incorrect because:

People started to believe it was important to protect the natural environment later on after the Age of Enlightenment, This was a topic that was introduced during the time when humans were really polluting the earth, and that was during the industrial revolution. This is the reason why this answer choice would be incorrect.

Which of the following describes a major outcome of President Bill Clinton's<br>impeachment?

Vaselesa [24]

Answer: The Senate found him not guilty of the charges against him.

Explanation: Clinton's second term was particularly marked by the extensive media coverage of the sexual scandals in which he was involved, mainly linking him to White House Scholar Monica Lewinsky, a graduate in Psychology who had intimate relations with the president. On August 6, 1998, she became the first witness to refute the affidavit of a president of the United States, in which he denied having had sexual relations with her. The prosecutor accused the president of eleven serious crimes worthy of impeachment, for perjury, abuse of power and obstruction of the work of justice. On October 8, the Congress voted 258 to 176 votes in favor of the impeachment process. After a few months, Clinton admitted to having maintained an "improper physical behavior", although he denied having committed perjury.

On February 12, 1999, the Senate declared Clinton "not guilty" of the crime of perjury by 55 to 45 votes in favor, and of the crime of obstruction of justice with a tie to 50. For culpability, a majority of two thirds was required.

Briefly describe ONE significant difference between Jackson's interpretation of government powers as expressed in his message to

Sonbull [250]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached, we can say the following.

One significant difference between Jackson's interpretation of government powers as expressed in his message to Congress was the belief of President Andrew Jackson that the Bank of the United States served the interests of a private company and personal interests, instead of serving the citizens of the United States. He thought that the United States Bank was not accountable to the people.

His rivals and enemies immediately reacted against his decision. When President Jackson vetoed the bill renewing the charter of the Second National Bank of the United States, his opponents and rivals felt that Jackson had disregarded the decisions of both, Congress and the Supreme Court.
