Technological developments such as the cotton gin and the power loom greatly changed the way textiles were produced. Before these developments, most textiles were made by hand, and this work was usually performed by the women of a household. The work was tedious and long.

With technology, textiles were produced in an industrial level. As the machines were easy to operate and did not require a lot of strength, this provided jobs for women and children in factories and textile mills. However, the work here was also very difficult, with long hours and low pay.

Which of the following was included in Patrick Henry’s Virginia Resolves? A. Colonists could be taxed only by colonial assemblie

djverab [1.8K]

A. Colonists could be taxed only by colonial assemblies.

The Virginia Resolves was a declaration against the taxation issued by Great Britain. The document argued that Great Britain had no right to tax the colonists because there was no representation in Parliament. The document further states that anyone who aided tax collectors would be considered an enemy of the colonies and the Patriots. This document laid out the Patriot cause and beliefs regarding the taxation policies.

The Virginia Resolves is one of many documents creating arguments for rebellion against the British government. This document along with Common Sense, the work of the Committees of Correspondence, and the Declaration of Independence all contributed to the ideology that led to the American Revolution. These documents were rooted in Enlightenment ideas which drove the Revolution.

The geography and climate of the Plains affects farming and water supply of Native Americans

<u>Explanation:</u>

The plains had marshes, forests, range lands and it had a highly diverse climate. Normally plains were very scarcely populated with a family group living in a particular landscape. Missouri river was present and hence people started living there in groups.

Climate change affected the tribal community and they faced great challenges. As precipitation and temperature they faced crisis in water supplies. Agriculture also was dependent on the rain and precipitation. If it was wet the sowing of seeds was delayed and excess rainfall drained the nutrient off.
