Idn't Spain have more colonies in Africa?
OK. During the era of exploration, the Portuguese were sailing around the coast of Africa and began their colonies in Mozambique, Angola, Guinea-Bissau, Cape Verde and Sao Tome y Principe. By the 1500's, Spain was preoccupied by explanding their empire in the Americas. Africa was then ignored for centuries before the introduction of quamine, which allowed Europeans to travel inland in Africa without dropping like flies from malaria. Hence, in the 1870's the scramble for Africa began! The British and French, the two largest Western powers of the day, took the most land in Africa. Germany too took colonies...Cameroon, Tanzania, Togo and Namibia were German colonies before WWI. Even Belgium took the Congo (they actually began the Scramble for Africa after circumnaviagting the Congo River). After WWI, they would also take Rwanda and Burundi from the Germans.
A. It gave Europe the message that the Western Hemisphere was no longer open for colonization.
The Monroe Doctrine said that no European powers will be allowed to colonize the Western Hemisphere because the United States had to fulfill their Manifest Destiny.
The correct answer is growth of new neurons
We are able to create new neurons, even in adulthood. The discovery is relatively new, because it was thought that we were born with a certain “neuron bank” that was decreasing with time and that we were not able to increase. However, the latest findings in neuroscience have overturned that belief. Our brain is plastic: we can create different connections and even, in some areas, like the hippocampus, we can make new neurons be born.
He is known to have begun work as a clerk with the State Department. He moved to Washington, D.C. in 1800 along with the government, and he was still there in 1814 when he saved the Declaration of Independence and other papers from being burned by British forces.
Southern Colonies I believe.
