<h2>Both declarations emphasize that persons have natural rights that are to be preserved and protected.</h2>

Explanation:

The Scientific Revolution had shown that there are natural laws in place in the physical world and in the universe at large.  Applying similar principles to matters like government and society, Enlightenment thinkers believed that using reason will guide us to the best ways to operate politically so we can create the most beneficial conditions for society.  John Locke and other Enlightenment era thinkers wrote with strong conviction that all human beings have certain natural rights which are to be protected and preserved.  Each individual's well-being (life, health, liberty, possessions) should be served by the way government and society are arranged.

The Declaration of Independence states these Enlightenment views on natural rights in this way:  

  • <em>We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.</em>

The Declaration of the Rights of Man and the Citizen opens with this assertion:

  • <em>The representatives of the French people, organized as a National Assembly, believing that the ignorance, neglect, or contempt of the rights of man are the sole cause of public calamities and of the corruption of governments, have determined to set forth in a solemn declaration the natural, unalienable, and sacred rights of man, in order that this declaration, being constantly before all the members of the Social body, shall remind them continually of their rights and duties.</em>

The ideas the Declaration of the rights of man and the citizen and the Declaration of Independence were based on the concept of equality and freedom belonging to everyone from birth. The natural rights of man and citizen were declared freedom of the person, freedom of speech, freedom of opinion, the right to resist oppression.

Alenkinab [10]

The answer is Speaker 1.

 The issue that needs a response is that there is a Soviet blockade, which led the United States decide to airlift supplies into Berlin. The speaker number 1 believes that the United States is able to protect its allies from Communist aggression without resorting to military conflict, <em>which shows he would mostly</em> <em>agree with that decision</em>. This line of thought suggests solution without any other direct involvement such as <em>prevent or never allow other countries' participation or influence.</em>

What was the major cause of indian-white conflict during the late 1700s and early 1800s?
Firlakuza [10]

White expansion. War between Indians and the whites was very common because the whites seemingly had quite an appetite for the Indian land. Indians struggle to contain this  aggressive  expansion led to war with hope to reduce American settlement and expansion.

How did pioneer settlements affect land in the West?
Llana [10]

Answer: The answer is A

Explanation: The species are transported by man from his native region to the receiving locality. Most species die during this phase but still, there are many that overcome it. Transportation can be intentional, caused by a man for a specific purpose, such as food production, wood, soil improvement, gardening or hunting and fishing activities; or accidental, involuntarily and associated with communication routes, shipments of agricultural products, stowaways in freight transport, the discharge of ballast water in ports or the depletion of geographical barriers by engineering works.
