Answer:

The Puritan Separatist movement.

Explanation:

Puritan Separatists were English protestants who considered the English Church, the Anglican Church, to be too similar to the Catholic church, which England had recently abandoned during the reign of Henry VIII.

These Puritan Separatists were very influenced by the teachings of John Calvin, a Swiss pastor who promoted a particular strict version of Protestantism.

Puritan Separatists were persecuted in England, and many of them fleed, initially to the Netherlands. However, they did not feel fully at ease there, and for this reason, seeked an alternative. They took interest in colonizing parts of North America, and eventually obtained a charter, and founded the Plymouth Colony in what is now Massachussetts.

What's the part of the brain that makes us human?
olasank [31]
The brain area pinpointed is known to be intimately involved in some of the most advanced planning and decision-making processes that we think of as being especially human.

'We tend to think that being able to plan into the future, be flexible in our approach and learn from others are things that are particularly impressive about humans. We've identified an area of the brain that appears to be uniquely human and is likely to have something to do with these cognitive powers,' says senior researcher Professor Matthew Rushworth of Oxford University's Department of Experimental Psychology.

MRI imaging of 25 adult volunteers was used to identify key components in the ventrolateral frontal cortex area of the human brain, and how these components were connected up with other brain areas. The results were then compared to equivalent MRI data from 25 macaque monkeys.

This ventrolateral frontal cortex area of the brain is involved in many of the highest aspects of cognition and language, and is only present in humans and other primates. Some parts are implicated in psychiatric conditions like ADHD, drug addiction or compulsive behaviour disorders. Language is affected when other parts are damaged after stroke or neurodegenerative disease. A better understanding of the neural connections and networks involved should help the understanding of changes in the brain that go along with these conditions.

The Oxford University researchers report their findings in the science journal Neuron.

Professor Rushworth explains: 'The brain is a mosaic of interlinked areas. We wanted to look at this very important region of the frontal part of the brain and see how many tiles there are and where they are placed.

'We also looked at the connections of each tile -- how they are wired up to the rest of the brain -- as it is these connections that determine the information that can reach that component part and the influence that part can have on other brain regions.'

From the MRI data, the researchers were able to divide the human ventrolateral frontal cortex into 12 areas that were consistent across all the individuals.
