Advanced Placement (AP)

Answer:

Very little rainfall occurred, and then a long drought had started. For this reason, people of Chaco Canyon (Anasazi) left that place and never came back.

Explanation:

Scientists have found one possible cause by dendrochronology (the study of looking at tree rings) in the Chaco Canyon area. In the period between A.D. 1125 and 1180, very little rain fell in the Chaco Canyon. After 1180, rainfall briefly returned to normal. From 1270 to 1274, there was another long drought, followed by another period of average rainfall. In 1275, yet another drought began. This one lasted 14 years.

When the people of Chaco Canyon (Anasazi) started facing this little rainfall, they fall into water problems. Their problem started to solve when the rain became typical, but they again started facing the same problem when long draught had begun.

So, finally, they (Anasazi) decided to leave Chaco Canyon and never thought about the return back there.

50 POINTS <br> Meaning of this picture and how does this political cartoon say about Imperialism?
Elden [556K]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The Meaning of this picture and what this political cartoon says about Imperialism is that it refers to the Rudyard Kippling idea of the "White Man's Burden." He wrote the famous poem "The White Man's Burden."

The poem refers to the War of 1899 between the United States and the Philippines. Kipling supported with his poem the imperialistic ideas of the United States and the annexation of the Philippines. Kipling thought that the American white men had the right and the moral obligation to educate other races. However, he considered that non-white peoples such as the Philippines would not be grateful after the help of American whites.

That is why in the cartoon, the author depicts a couple of white men, one of them dressing like Uncle Sam, carrying big baskets full of black people, representing other nations.

At that time, Europeans sadly believed that they were a more evolved race who deserved to take over others. That is why Social Darwinism is considered to be imperialistic and racist.

So as part of imperialistic ideas, white people living in European nations or in the United States, believed that they had the right to colonize and conquer less developed territories and govern these native people.

What is photorespiration? Describe the techniques used by C3, C4, and CAM Plants to minimize photorespiration. Please provide AP
Salsk061 [2.6K]
Photorespiration is when plants take in oxygen and light and release carbon dioxide. Contrary to photosynthesis. C3 plants have no system to minimize photorespiration, C4 plants minimize photoresperiation by separating the initial CO2 fixations and the Calvin cycle to be performed in different types of cells. CAM plants minimize photorespiration by taking CO2 by opening their stomata at night and then keeping the stomata closed during the day while they do photosynthesis.

How do symbiotic relationships evolve? PLEASE!!! PLEASE!!! HELP!!!! I NEED IT!!!!!! COME UP WITH YOUR OWN ORIGINAL ANSWER!!!!!!!
svet-max [94.6K]

~Hello There!~

So, I read up on this just to answer this question. In basic terms, it revolves around natural selection. Natural selection is simply when the organisms that are 'better adapted' live on to pass on their genes. The animals that aren't the 'better adapted' have to find ways to survive. This is what leads to the development of these relationships. For example, small insects may climb onto animals to get food. The organisms support each other. Does that help?

Hope This Helps You!

Good Luck :)

Have A Great Day ^_^
