Answer:

The federal government organization used to regulate railroad, telephone, and telegraph companies was the Interstate Commerce Commission.

Explanation:

The Interstate Commerce Commission was founded by the Interstate Commerce Act, a federal law of February 4, 1887. The ICC was the first independent agency at the federal level. With the approval of the United States Senate, the President of the United States appointed its members who were somewhat independent in their decisions.

The original purpose of the ICC was to regulate rail traffic (and later also truck traffic), such as ensuring fair freight rates or preventing discriminatory pricing. From 1910 to 1934 it also regulated telephone services between the states. This responsibility passed to the newly created Federal Communications Commission in 1934. Due to various deregulation measures by the US Congress in the 1970s and 1980s, the ICC lost more and more of its competencies. It was abolished in 1995. Since then, the responsibilities that have remained to it have been carried out by the Surface Transportation Board.

How did dogs play a role in the Atlantic Slave Trade?
sergeinik [125]
Dogs played important roles in the Atlantic slave Trade because they helped capture slaves in Africa and were used to run slaves down similarly to how dogs are still being used today in the mountains to hunt down and keep sheep at bay. This is the similarity between the two.

padilas [110]

Answer:

Dear Riya,

This is a technique by speaker and psychologist Connie Podesta. It is very simple and works best in groups, though you can try it individually. Please follow these instructions and then look at the next paragraph for more insight.

1. You have to draw these four shapes in front of you: square, circle, squiggle and a triangle one at a time.

2. Now you have to choose one of these and draw it again.

The one you draw again tells your personality. Nobody of course has one shape and are mostly mixtures but the strongest can be found out with this activity. All of these have the following meanings
