A local botanist believes that the town water supply contains contaminants that are killing the native plant life. She intends t

o make her case to the Board of Supervisors at the next town meeting in two months but wants to have heard data to support her case. She decides to conduct an experiment to test her theory. She begins by collecting 10 plant samples from the local park and places all 10 plants in a roped-off square area that receives ample light and will be undisturbed by park visitors. Next, she places 10 scraps of paper numbered 1 to 10 in a hat, then pulls the scraps of paper at random, numbers the plants 1 to 10 and divides them into two groups. For six weeks, she waters 5 of the plants (3, 5, 7, 9 and 10) using the town water supply and 5 of the plants (plants 1, 2, 4, 6, 8) using bottled, distilled water. During the six weeks, she asks her neighbor and fellow plant lover to keep records of leaf condition (color, texture, strength) and stem and root conditions by counting the number of yellowed spots, wilted leaves, and withered offshoots. At the end of six weeks, she asks her neighbor to evaluate the 10 plants and he reports that plants 3, 5, 9 and 10 are yellowed, withering and diseased.

Analyze the origins and development of slavery in Britain's North American colonies in the period 1607 to 1776.
kogti [31]
  • The origins of slavery in Britain's North American colonies can be traced back to the early 1600s, when the first African slaves were brought to the Virginia colony. At first, these slaves were used primarily for labor in the tobacco fields. However, by the mid-1700s, the use of slaves had spread to other areas of the colonies, such as the Carolinas and Georgia, where they were used for labor in the rice and indigo fields.

  • The development of slavery in the British colonies was largely shaped by the demand for labor. As the colonies grew and became more economically prosperous, the demand for labor increased. This led to the importation of more slaves from Africa. By the time of the American Revolution, there were an estimated 500,000 slaves in the British colonies.

North American colonies:

The British North American colonies were well-established communities that were tightly linked to the Atlantic and Caribbean commerce networks. Although religious ideals drove many settlers, others regarded the colonies as a chance to buy their own land, work for themselves, or strike it rich.

Tju [1.3M]
The low pressure helps us predict that there is going to be precipitation; however, since the temperature is above that of the freezing point of water, there will be no snow. Therefore, we can predict a rain shower.<span />
