Answer:

Slaves

Explanation:

To a degree, the material conditions of slave life were predetermined by the status of the slave. During the early colonial period, slaves and indentured servants enjoyed greater freedoms than black slaves would in later periods. But even then, they belonged to the lowest, poorest ranks of society. In the late seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries, slaves were condemned to impoverishment by the law. In many colonies, slaves could not participate in wage-earning trade or labor. In others they were denied the right to own property. The slave's resulting dependence on his or her master for the most basic necessities -- food, clothing, shelter -- was integral to the preservation of the master's power and the sustaining of the slave society.

Which action can humans take to reduce wave erosion?

AURORKA [14]

Building breakwaters in the ocean will reduce the wave erosion.

Waves destroy cliff and coastline deposits. The silt in ocean water functions similarly to sandpaper. They degrade the beach over time. The larger the waves and the more silt they transport, the greater the erosion.

Structures built on the beach (seawalls, groynes, breakwaters/artificial headlands) or further offshore are used in hard structural/engineering alternatives (offshore breakwaters). These strategies alter coastal processes in order to slow or stop coastal erosion.

Breakwaters are offshore obstacles that protect a portion of the shoreline. They serve as a wave barrier, preventing erosion and allowing the beach to expand. Wave energy dissipation permits material transported by longshore currents to be deposited behind the breakwater. This safeguards the beach.

Therefore, the correct option is to build breakwaters in the ocean.

Can you suggest a reason why historians see Marston Moor as a ‘turning point’ in the civil war?

leonid [27]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options for this question we can say the following.

Historians see Marston Moor as a ‘turning point’ in the civil war because this was the largest battle regarding the number of troops, to be fought in England during the English Civil War (1642-1651). Historians think that according to some sources, the Parliamentarian and Scots troops killed approximately 4,000 Royalists soldiers.

The victory of the Parliamentarian and Scots meant one thing but an important one in the Civil War: the Royalists had lost total control of the North part of the English territory.

Historians also consider that the victory impulsed the career of military official Oliver Cromwell.
