History

Answer:

1. Definition:

The verb form of the word "import" means to bring goods or services into a country from another country.  The noun form can mean the goods or services that are so brought from another country.  The ordinary meaning is the "essence" or "meaning" of a statement or an action.  But for our purpose here, imports refer to goods and services brought in from another country and the accompanying action.

2. Usage of the word "import" in a sentence, especially about Texas in the 1830s:

'Texas served as the center of Mexican imports before the 1830s, but this was disrupted in 1846 following the American blockade of Mexican ports mainly located in Texas.'  This blockade made it difficult for Mexico to import goods through Texan ports.  It also affected its ability to fight the war that erupted in 1846 and helped to end Mexico's control of the US-annexed Texas.

Explanation:

Before gaining some period of independence in the 1830s, Texas was part of Mexico.  However, Mexico lost Texas to the US following the war between the two neighbors.  Political and financial instability hampered Mexico's ability to prosecute the war with America, worsened by the blockade of Mexican ports in Texas.

The painting shows a man who is showing off his medal and ring which is a sign of him being part of the upper class.

This means that it is the man himself who most likely asked for the painting to be made to showcase his class. Seeing as merchants were quite wealthy at the time, he was most probably a merchant as well.

JulijaS [17]

Answer:

A. Philo T Farnsworth

Explanation:

Philo T Farnsworth was a lone wolf inventor who worked on the development of the television. By saying he is a lone wolf, we meant he worked independently and without affiliation to any organization in developing and executing his ideas about the invention of the television.

Although he worked in his owned small private laboratory in San Francisco, this was not possible without getting financial backers who were interested in his research. They are the ones that made the finance of his invention project a possibility
