Their relationships are varied...

I’m going to use Jamestown (1607) as a scenario.

Jamestown was the first colony founded by the English. During its first years, the colony didn’t go well as unhealthy conditions killed more of the colonists than any other cause.

Native Americans around the colony saw the colonists were trespassing. And relationships between Jamestown and all of the people of local Indians were tense. During its first weeks, the colony was attacked, and only after the settlers built a stockade.

Another scenario, the second colony, Plymouth, Massachusetts 1620 (populated by Pilgrims)

After a severe winter resulting in the deaths of many families in the late 1620s, the colony’s luck has changed. A native American named Samoset welcomed the colonists wholeheartedly. He boldly walked and said, “Welcome, Englishmen!”. Soon after Samoset’s visit, Massasoit (the leader of the tribe) and Squanto (a translator) arrived with many warriors.

The colonists has their best meal in months that evening. The Natives also taught them to catch herring in the town brook and use them as fertilizer for planting corn. It proved to be the salvation of the colony. The Pilgrims also concluded an agreement with Massasoit that led to 54 years of peace, an amazing development in the Americas.

Again, these early relationships varied. However, Native Americans were getting suppressed gradually...

Answer:A. Pluralistic ignorance

Explanation:

Pluralistic ignorance refers to how eventhough we may all behave the same way but inwardly think that others are behaving that way for different reasons than ours as a result we end up going along with them thinking they feel the opposite of what we feel.

The assumption that our classmates are quite because they understood the lecture instead of thinking that maybe they also may be afraid to ask is what makes up the pluralistic behavior.

We end up going along with an idea thinking that the majority of people agrees with that idea only to find than non of them agrees with it.

Look at the images of different rocks. Which two rocks have a fine-grained texture? 1 and 5 2 and 3 3 and 5 4 and 1

Inessa [10]

Answer:

1 and 5

Explanation:

The image of the different rocks are attached. From the image attached, it can be seen that rock 1 and rock 5 have a fine grained texture.

Fine grained rocks are formed from volcanic eruptions. During these eruptions, the molten magma is cooled fast at or close to the earth surface thereby forming rocks with a fine grained texture. The rock has fine grains because the crystals are small because of the fast cooling of the molten magma. Slow cooling causes the crystals to be large thereby forming coarse rocks such as rocks 2, 3 and 4.
