Answer:

Read below

Explanation:

(this is based on my opinion, since this is an opinion prompt)

I do believe that the Good Samaritan laws are a good idea. This is an especially good idea due to the fact that people may suddenly collapse in public with no trained medical professionals nearby. People may collapse due to choking and lack of air. This person would have a much higher chance if someone were to step in and either preform CPR, the Heimlich Maneuver, or whatever else that person requires in order to survive. If you were to standby and do nothing, and attempt to contact emergency responders, it may already be too late for the victim, the person might end up dying due to the ambulance not arriving on time. If the Good Samaritan law were to be put a stop to, many more people would end up dying in the long run due to there not being any law to protect bystanders who wish to intervene.

<span>People moved from large cities in the East to settle in the Western Territories.--new transportation and territories open up with cheap land drew people west. 

Western migration eased the crowding of Northeastern cities and provided a group of people to farm and provide food for the growing industrial centers through the North and Midwest. Railroad transportation allowed for easier travel to the West as well as roads and canals. </span>

Which of these was an immediate result of the Industrial Revolution in Europe?
Andrew [12]

D) European social and political reform movements erupted

Explanation:

Almost as soon as the effects of Industrial Revolution became permanent many social and political reform movements sprang up all across Europe looking for greater freedom and rights.

<u>This happened because now the population could see the exploitation within closed quarters of each other and it was easier to mobilize in the cities.</u>

<u>The scholarly response to Industrial Revolution also called for the  dignity of man</u> and safeguard of his rights as he became more of a cog of a machine.
