Explanation:
Harvey, William William Harvey (1578–1657) was both a physician and a remarkable natural historian. His great achievement was the demonstration of the circulation of the blood, a discovery which replaced centuries of theory and speculation with knowledge firmly based on accurate observation and experiment
His work was of vital importance in illustrating the sequence of hypothesis, experiment, and conclusion which has governed all medical discovery since his time. He was the founder of modern physiology.
Harvey was born in Folkestone in Kent on 1 April 1578, the son of a yeoman, James Harvey, and his wife Joane Halke. Aged ten, in the year of the Spanish Armada, he was sent to King's School, Canterbury, and from there to Cambridge University, being admitted to Gonville and Caius College on 31 May 1593. He graduated BA in 1597 and deciding to study medicine, travelled though France and Germany to Padua, where Galileo was then teaching. There is no evidence that Harvey ever met Galileo, nor of whether he believed in the heliocentric view of the universe. His own mentor was the great anatomist, Fabricius of Aquapendente, who maintained the traditions of Vesalius at Padua. Harvey graduated MD in Padua on 25 April 1602 and returned to London, taking his Cambridge MD in that same year. Two years later he married Elizabeth Browne, daughter of Dr Lancelot Browne, onetime physician to Queen Elizabeth. In 1607, he became a Fellow of the College of Physicians and in 1609 began his long association with St Bartholomew's Hospital, on appointment as assistant physician.

Stalingrad was a protracted and extremely bloody military confrontation. More than 2 million troops were involves, and the death toll (including many thousands of Russian civilians) also numbered around two million.

Hello. You did not put the answer options, but a fact that links the "rise of Pericles to power" and the "Peloponnesian War and the death of Pericles" is the growth of the power of Athens while the power of Sparta was suppressed.
Explanation:
Pericles was a great Greek politician who came to power in Athens, where he had an administrable administration making Athens a great cultural, artistic, military, political and economic center.
Under his administration, Athens has become very strong and powerful, however. Pericles had big plans for Athens, one of which included suppressing the power and influence of Sparta, which became increasingly threatened by PEricles' government.
Tension with Sparta triggered the Peloponnesian war, causing the Spartans to invade the cities near Athens. This invasion was used against Pericles who was temporarily condemned, accused and defaulted on public money. Pericles died shortly afterwards a victim of the plague.
