As a former mission the site had great religious importance in Texas did Jim Bowie have for defending the Alamo.  

As a former mission, the site had great religious importance to Texans.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Mission san Antonio de Valero was built by Spanish settlers it housed missionaries and Native American converts. In 1793 the lands of the five missions was divided among the local people. The abandoned chapel of the mission was occupied by several military troops in the later years.  

The fort which housed the chapel was called El Alamo. Alamo is an important location in Texas’ war of independence from Mexico. Texas soldiers gained control of Alamo in 1836 and even after the being suggested to abandon the fort due to lack of sufficient troops people like Colonel Jim Bowie decided to defend the fort until last breath because of the religious significance the fort had.

Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

Native peoples were no longer entitled to lands they had always occupied.

Explanation:

The 1493 Doctrine of Discovery is the one-sided law/ doctrine that was passed by the European monarchies to acquire lands owned by other indigenous tribes. This law was also used to justify such land-grabbing in the name of civilization and 'Christianizing' them, thereby providing salvation to the 'lost souls'.

This spiritual, political, and legal claim made by the European powers was made just as a means to justify the land acquisition. The doctrine 'legalizes' and allows the possession or taking over of native lands as long as the natives were given the "gifts of conversion and civilization" in return. This will allow the European monarchies and authorities to get access and possess the New World. But for the natives, they were no longer rightful owners of the lands they had always occupied.

Thus, the <u>correct answer is the second option</u>.

How are augmented reality and virtual reality being used in journalism?
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

The lack of transparency between the media and people opens a wide door of ambiguities (as the fancy ones say it). This is where augmented and virtual reality plays a role in helping journalists provide information more conveniently while letting viewers get a more closer insight to stories (hope this helps!!!)
