Answer:

A. It can be patented as it is useful, novel, and not obvious.

Explanation:

According to the United States law for patenting, “a patent is granted when the product is new, useful, and non-obvious”. The product is new since no one has created that type of tires, it is useful because it protects people from possible accidents, and it is non-obvious because it is sufficiently inventive. The key here is that Angela created and designed a new tire that could be revolutionary in the automobile company. It would not be eligible for copyright since copyright only protects expressions of ideas. In the other hand, patents protects new inventions.

boyakko [2]

Ancient Sumer was located in modern-day southern Iraq. The Ancient Sumerians were known for many innovative achievements but the one that had the biggest impact, in my opinion, is their writing form cuneiform. It is the oldest known writing system in the world. I believe that this had the power to influence their development other achievements such as mathematics, art, economics, agriculture, government, and infrastructure.


Having a writing system assisted in communication and record keeping that allowed for those other areas to flourish and accommodate a successful society. Their successful record keeping and developments have assisted modern day society giving us a record of daily Sumerian life, large population accommodation, trade, art & literature, and government & leadership.

What was an effect of the southern economy being based on agriculture
NISA [10]

As soil erosion and exhaustion diminished the availability of cotton land, scarcity and heavy demand forced the price of land and slaves to rise beyond the reach of most, and in newer cotton-growing regions, yeomen farmers were pushed off the land as planters expanded their holdings.

Explanation:

There was great wealth in the South, but it was primarily tied up in the slave economy. In 1860, the economic value of slaves in the United States exceeded the invested value of all of the nation's railroads, factories, and banks combined. On the eve of the Civil War, cotton prices were at an all-time high.
