Option C, the public was outraged and demanded legislative reform from the government, is the right answer.  

Upton Sinclair's (Muckraking Journalist) socialist policy forced him to write a Novel called “The Jungle” in 1906, which presented the harsh conditions and exploited lives of the immigrants, mainly in the Meat- packing industry of the United States. His primary purpose for writing this Novel was to advance Socialism in the U.S. As the people of the United States came to know about the actual condition of the workers in the meat packing industry thus they became outrageous and demanded the federal government to pass legislative reforms. Therefore, the impact of the book and the demands of the people resulted in the “ Pure Food and Drug Act” passed by the government fer months later.

Ksenya-84 [330]

In 1769, father Junipero Serra started a string of missions designed both to colonize California and Christianize. The indigenous inhabitants of California are those who have lived or still reside in the region inside the state's present borders before and after the arrival of Europeans. The wealthiest and most powerful lineage chiefs oversaw these tribes.

The importance placed on individual ownership of food resources like oak forests and fishing grounds is a reflection of the civilizations' strong emphasis on wealth. The Modoc, Achumawi, and Atsugewi tribes lived in this area. Native Americans in California and Christianize consumed a wide variety of plant foods, including acorns  and flowering plants.

What did Reagan do to stop communism
fenix001 [56]

Answer: Reagan did not stop communism (communism never existed and its ideology is still here....there are many communist parties all over the world which is quite surprising and incredible) but practiced very well Kennan´s strategy of "containment". Communism itself  underwent serious crises (1956 Hungary, 1968 Czechoslovakia, 80s in Poland) ...in 1980s there was a lot of dissatisfaction in the Eastern block, anti-communist opposition was growing and USSR became aware that reforms are necessary. Gorbatchev (from  1985) was really aware that the communist regimes are no longer sustainable. There were various factors.

Explanation: communist regimes exhausted themselves, nothing worked....economically and ideologically as well. That was something which helped very much to Reagan.

¿Por qué fueron las colonias importantes para Inglaterra?
blsea [12.9K]

ENGLISH:As a result, for the most part, the English colonies in North America were business ventures. They provided an outlet for England's surplus population and (in some cases) more religious freedom than England did, but their primary purpose was to make money for their sponsors.

SPANISH:

Como resultado, en su mayor parte, las colonias inglesas en América del Norte eran empresas comerciales. Proporcionaron una salida para el excedente de población de Inglaterra y (en algunos casos) más libertad religiosa que Inglaterra, pero su propósito principal era hacer dinero para sus patrocinadores.
