Answer:

They both reached people with disabilities. But, Thomas helped those with hearing impairments. While Dorothea helped prisoners suffering from mental illness.

longer answer:

They were both part of a movement developed in the early 19th century when many institutions were created aimed for people with disabilities. Gallaudet found the first institute for the deaf and brought what we today know as sign language to the US. He was inspired by a religious revival that set him on a course of service and against oppression. On the other hand, Dorothea Dix began a campaign to help people with mental illnesses after seeing the awful way they were treated at jails. Her pleas pushed the government of Massachusetts to create separate facilities to people with mental illnesses.

All of the following characteristics describe which river?
Damm [24]

The correct option is A. All of the chart characteristics describe the Mississippi River.

The Mississippi is a long river in the center of the United States that flows south through ten states (Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, Missouri, Illinois, Kentucky, Tennessee, Arkansas, Mississippi and Louisiana) until it drains into the Gulf of Mexico, near New Orleans. It has a length of 3734 km.

Agriculture and varied industries depend on the Mississippi. Although human beings have used it as a navigable way to move from one place to another and establish trade, it was from the arrival of the colonizers that it became an essential route for the shipment of coal, steel, oil and agricultural products.

Of all commercial products, cotton was the most important until the beginning of the 20th century, but agriculture in the soil of its basin continued to be a prominent economic activity. Other important crops have been rice, corn, peanuts, sugar cane, potatoes, hay and wheat.
