Explanation:

Kelo v. City of New London, 545 U.S. 469 (2005), was a case decided by the Supreme Court of the United States involving the use of eminent domain to transfer land from one private owner to another private owner to further economic development. In a 5–4 decision, the Court held that the general benefits a community enjoyed from economic growth qualified private redevelopment plans as a permissible "public use" under the Takings Clause of the Fifth Amendment.[1]

The case arose in the context of condemnation by the city of New London, Connecticut, of privately owned real property, so that it could be used as part of a "comprehensive redevelopment plan." After the Court's decision, the city allowed a private developer to proceed with its plans; however, the developer was unable to obtain financing and abandoned the project, and the contested land remained an undeveloped empty lot in 2019.

How was the spirit of improvement related to the industrial revolution?

Georgia [21]

The spirit of improvement is part of the foundation of the type of personality of those who are innovators, inventors, and those who took part in the industrial revolution. The basic concept of wanting to improve upon ways to accomplish tasks is essential in the forward momentum, knowledge acquisition, and the improvement if society. Going all the way back to when humans had to hunt for survival, the spirit of improvement lead to the development of the spear over the club, the arrow over the spear, the hunting rifle over the arrow and so on and so forth. By improving on concepts and ideas we move society and humans forward. When it came to the industrial revolution, the spirit of innovation led to things like the assembly line which revolutionized the speed at which products were developed. The spirit of improvement was an essential component of the industrial revolution because without the desire to improve our lives we would still be hunting with clubs.

KIM [24]

Answer:

D. The civilization had a functioning government in place that decided the law of the land.

Explanation:

The discovery of the official-looking seal and the clay tablet containing the laws which the civilization have to follow shows that they have a functioning government. This means that the society has a leader and they followed a set of rules.

It wasn't clearly stated in the statement whether the head was a king but it mentioned that the seal was much like what a king would use. So we cannot conclude that all civilizations were ruled by kings. This makes choice A incorrect. 

Based on the information given, we're not sure whether it was the king who wrote the rules on the clay tablets. This makes choice B incorrect.

The statements above didn't show any evidence that the rulers were governors and not kings, so we cannot assume as well. This makes choice C incorrect.
