Why do you think Congress didn't pass John Ross’ petition that 17,000 Cherokees signed?

Answer:

Because the congress was interested in taking over the land on which the Cherokees lived to advance government plans.

Explanation:

John Ross's petition was made against the fact that he wanted to remove the indigenous people from their territories and put them to live in very disadvantageous reserves. Ross managed to sign 17,000 Cherokees, who opposed the forced removal that the government was imposing.

However, this was a losing fight, because as the Congress itself was interested in those lands, they ignored the petition, acting as if it had no value and ignoring the rights of the indigenous people did not approve the petition of Ross and the Cherokees.

Globally, more than a billion people are addicted to _____________, and more than 100 million are addicted to _____________
KATRIN_1 [288]

Globally, more than a billion people are addicted to nicotine, and more than 100 million are addicted to alcohol.

The nightshade family of plants naturally generate the alkaloid nicotine, which is extensively used recreationally as a stimulant and anxiolytic. Within seconds after inhaling nicotine, it reaches the brain. Nicotine enhances the release of neurotransmitters, brain chemicals that help control mood and behaviour.

Alcohol, often known by its chemical name ethanol, is a psychoactive substance found in alcoholic beverages like beer, wine, and distilled spirits.

Alcohol can change how the brain functions and looks by interfering with the brain's communication networks.
