Answer:

All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside.

Explanation:

The Fourteenth Amendment, which granted citizenship and equal rights to African Americans took effect on July 28th, 1868.  Although the Fourteenth Amendment was sent to Congress for ratification on June 16, 1866, it was not officially enforced until July 28th, 1868.  The Fourteenth Amendment was a pivotal step in African American’s fight for civil rights. The groundbreaking amendment, most notably granted citizenship and equal rights to African American citizens, including former slaves.  

The Fourteenth Amendment is broken into five sections, outlining the citizenship and rights granted to African Americans, the forbiddance and consequences for states that withhold basic liberties to African Americans, the new system for determining selectees for the House of Representatives after the nullification of the Thirteenth Amendment (three-fifths rule), and the national debt acquired during the Civil War.

In 150 words, describe the powers of federal and state agencies
allsm [11]

Federal and State agencies put into practice the laws that legislatures pass. This is important as most laws define the broad strokes of what is hoped to be accomplished. So, agencies then step in and fill in the games. They have the authority to think creatively when filling in the gaps but they are also unelected.

So, federal and state agencies exist as unelected executors of law, with all that that encompasses from filling in gaps to determining and applying sanctions.

In the United States, what regions are most at risk for tornados and hurricanes, and why?
sveticcg [70]
The region that's most likely at risk for a tornado is Tornado Alley. Tornado Alley consists of these U.S. states: Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, South Dakota, Iowa, Illinois, Missouri, Nebraska, Colorado, North Dakota, and Minnesota. These states unfortunately are at the most risk of tornadoes. This is because the region allows cold air (from Canada) meet with moist and warm air (from the Gulf of Mexico), so it's soon in between two the air-masses that most tornadoes eventually form.

The region most at risk for hurricanes are states along the South; the most common places at risk are Texas, Florida, and Louisiana. You're more likely to get hit by a hurricane in these states. This is because of the mere influence from low pressure systems that cause high wind speeds on tropical systems.

contributions of the Babylonians to society? Explain why each was important and how each contribution influenced change.
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer: Babylonians came after Akkadians and Sumerians so it is important to bear this in mind because many of their skills were inherited from previous cultures and some of these skills can be viewed as an extension of Sumerian and Akkadian culture/civilization (Sumerian language continued being language of liturgy, some old Sumerian religious cults were still there, Sumerian mythology was still present, astronomy and mathematics and cuneiform characters were inherited). Day divided in 24 hours is a Babylonian invention, circle divided in 360 degrees is also Babylonian invention, capacity to predict lunar eclipse and discovery of lunation (and their symbolic interpretation) is a Babylonian invention. Big part of all that was acquired/inherited by old Greek thinkers (Thales for example).

Explanation: There is no doubt that astronomy/astrology is of Sumerian/Babylonian origin and this knowledge was spread in Middle East and later it came to Greece. Egyptian and Greek (and later western) astrology was influenced by Babylonian astrology. Many predictive techniques and divinations we can found among Egyptians and Greek were of Babylonian origin (study of planetary secondary progressions, eclipses etc.).
