Answer: The ice caps are already in water.

Explanation:

The ice packs in North Pole and the ice sheet in Antarctica are already in water. When they melt therefore, they are simply being converted from one state to another but the quantity is the same.

In other words, the volume that the ice occupied in the water becomes the volume of liquid added to the water so there is no net change in volume added leading to sea levels staying the same.

How did European diseases affect the people of the Western Hemisphere? Why was this different from the effects in Europe? (two p
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

The European diseases affected the people of the Western Hemisphere greatly. Outbreaks of various diseases brought by the Europeans to the Americas such as smallpox, influenza, malaria, diphtheria, etc. It killed many of the Native Americans and disrupted their societies. Due to the diseases having been in Europe for a longer time, the people got more immune to them, however, this was the first time the Native Americans were exposed to it.

Due to them not being immune, the mortality rate for a Native American catching a disease was extremely high, much higher than they would have been if it was already introduced. The Native Americans also had very limited health care therefore were not able to be treated as well as the Europeans. Because of this, the diseases affected them for much longer periods of time.
