Answer:

The astrolabe was an instrument that had great developments in the Islamic world during the year 800 and was introduced in Europe through Islamic Spain in the early 12th century.

It serves to solve problems related to the  position of the Sun and the stars in the sky. In the Muslim world they often used it also to calculate the prayer schedule and locate the direction of Mecca.

With the help of astrolabs, compasses, quadrants and diopters, the so-called "astronomical tables" were built, in which the positions and movement of the celestial bodies were found.

The astrolabe also allowed Muslim astronomers to study the solar spheres and to propose planetary models to explain the phenomenon of trepidation.

1.   What law placed controls on foods and medicines in the early 1900s? 
ki77a [65]
It would be the Pure food and Drug Act. The main purpose of the Pure Food and Drug Act of 1906 was to ban foreign and interstate traffic in adulterated or mislabeled food and drug products, it led to the creation of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The Dawes Act of 1887 authorized the President of the United States to survey American Indian tribal land and divide it into allotments for individual Indians. Those who accepted allotments and lived separately from the tribe would be granted United States citizenship. There is no such thing as The Federal Medication Act or the Federal Drug Administration.
