The correct answer is C. An online encyclopedia article about Franklin Roosevelt.

Explanation

A secondary source is a type of information source that is characterized by documents in which primary sources are analyzed, translated, syntetized, and reorganizated by a third-party. In other words, the secondary source is content that was produced from a primary source. Examples of secondary sources are biographies, translations, articles, among others. According to the above, it can be inferred that the correct answer is C. An online encyclopedia article about Franklin Roosevelt since the author of this article surely relied on primary sources to write it.

‘The growth of the British Empire was the main cause of the Industrial Revolution.’ How far do you agree with this statement.
dlinn [17]

Answer:

The Transformation of the World

Try to imagine what your life would be like without any machines working for you. Make a list of the machines in your household and on your person; you may arrive at a surprising number.

Now imagine earlier generations during their childhood years. How did they move from place to place? How did they communicate? What foods did they eat?

At one time, humans, fueled by the animals and plants they ate and the wood they burned, or aided by their domesticated animals, provided most of the energy in use. Windmills and waterwheels captured some extra energy, but there was little in reserve. All life operated within the fairly immediate flow of energy from the Sun to Earth.

Everything changed during the Industrial Revolution, which began around 1750. People found an extra source of energy with an incredible capacity for work. That source was fossil fuels — coal, oil, and natural gas, though coal led the way — formed underground from the remains of plants and animals from much earlier geologic times. When these fuels were burned, they released energy, originally from the Sun, that had been stored for hundreds of millions of years.

Coal was formed when huge trees from the Carboniferous period (345– 280 million years ago) fell and were covered with water, so that oxygen and bacteria could not decay them. Instead, the pressure of the weight of materials above them compressed them into dark, carbonic, ignitable rock.

Most of the Earth’s oil and gas formed over a hundred million years ago from tiny animal skeletons and plant matter that fell to the bottom of seas or were buried in sediment. This organic matter was compacted by the weight of water and soil. Coal, oil, and gas, despite their relative abundance, are not evenly distributed on Earth; some places have much more than others, due to geographic factors and the diverse ecosystems that existed long ago.

Early Steam Engines

The story of the Industrial Revolution begins on the small island of Great Britain. By the early 18th century, people there had used up most of their trees for building houses and ships and for cooking and heating. In their search for something else to burn, they turned to the hunks of black stone (coal) that they found near the surface of the earth. Soon they were digging deeper to mine it. Their coal mines filled with water that needed to be removed; horses pulling up bucketfuls proved slow going.

Why was the Kingdom of Axum an important region on the Silk Road?
yan [13]
The Kingdom of Axum was an important region in the Silk Road, because they had their own currency, which facilitated trade in the Silk Road trade and although it was sovereign, it sometimes entered the politics of the Arabian Peninsula, so it is safe to say that it was known and had good relations with it's neighbors and the people coming in and the people going out. Slowly afterwards, they started expanding their rule over the Arabian Peninsula.
