Answer: B. an increase in the number of immigrants from southern and eastern Europe.

Explanation:

From 1880 to 1914, it is estimated that over 20 million people immigrated to the U.S. from southern and eastern Europe. They were escaping persecution and looking for a better life.

These people needed jobs to survive and so would try to get as many people as possible to be employed including children so that more of the family would earn money. The conditions that they worked in was quite dangerous but they would still go to work because they needed an income.

ser-zykov [4K]

Answer: increasingly regulated them

Explanation:

After the British took over the then New Amsterdam in 1664 and renamed it to New York, they took away the privileges that certain people in society had enjoyed such as women and black people.

In the case of black people, they removed many of them from the skilled jobs that they had and made slavery legal a year after they arrived. Some decades later in 1712 they clamped down even harder on enslaved people and limited their movements in the city and even sometimes refused white people from releasing them.

Wgat is one reason that japan has such a distinctive culture?
kherson [118]
One reason why Japan has such a distinctive culture is because it was closed off from the world from 1623 to 1641. The Tokugawa Shogunate closed Japan because they were afraid of all the new ideas and cultures that came from trading. Because of this period of isolation, Japan created their own unique culture without being influenced by any western ideas. 
Hope this helps! Please let me know if I'm wrong :)
