Answer: The Scientific Revolution was started in 1543 and ended in 1687. During the revolution, many scientific advancements were made during this time, including progress in understanding human anatomy, mathematics, science, geography, astronomy, and physics. An important figure during this time was Nicolaus Copernicus, inventor of the heliocentric model, that place the Sun, not the Earth, in the middle of the Solar System.
Another important person of this time is Andreas Vesalius. Andreas Vesalius wrote one of the most important and influential book during this time period, with detailed accounts of the human anatomy. Without Vesalius's studies, many doctors at the time would still be practicing 'blood letting' and using herbs to cure severe illness.
An important person during this time that founded modern chemistry is Robert Boyle. Boyle is often regarded as the first modern chemist, he is the pioneer of modern scientific theory. Without Boyle, many chemicals we use today for cleaning, or manufacturing modern materials could either still be undiscovered or being created.
In conclusion without the Scientific Revolution, many modern day knowledge would not be known. Without people like Nicolaus Copernicus, Andreas Vesalius, and Robert Boyle, we could still very well be in the age of powder still.
1. Answer: California's admittance to the Union as a free state angered the South because it meant there were more free states than slave states. It also angered them because slaves could escape and go there to be free.
2. Answer: The Compromise of 1850 eased the South's concerns of Congress abolishing slavery after admitting California as a free state because the Fugitive Slave Act was a provision in the compromise that would legally require escaped slaves to be returned to their owners if caught. The compromise also ensured popular sovereignty which allowed individual states to vote on issues.
3. Answer: The Fugitive Slave Act required that escaped slaves that went to the North would have to be returned to their owner in the South. The North rebelled against this law, however.
4. Answer: Georgia's response to the Compromise of 1850 was the Georgia Platform. It said that Georgia would accept the compromise if the North no longer made any attacks on slavery in the South.
I hope this helps!!! :)
