Answer: Slavery was an important part of their economy

Explanation:

Southern America at the time relied heavily on plantation farming to produce many goods that they exported to the rest of the world and also the North. Crops such as cotton and indigo were in high demand.

Farming these crops was gruesome work and required hard labor. This is why the South used enslaved people. They also wanted to keep labor costs at a minimum and enslaved people were not paid so slavery kept costs down. It was simply too important to their economy.

hichkok12 [17]

The answer is: When Kirsten turns over paper.

Recycling is the process of converting waste into material or products of potential utility bringing the reducing of the consumption as a consequence. In this scenario, Kirsten turns the paper to take advantage of the blank space. When she gets tired of one side of the painting, she can use the other painting. Kirsten then saved up the use of another paper, using the blank side of the same paper she had used before.

He constitutions of the states were ___.

aksik [14]

<span>The constitutions of the states were somewhat different. Though they all created constitutions that reflected their local beliefs and needs, they also largely kept colonial traditions. For example, the Pennsylvania Constitution of 1776 removed property requirements for voting and holding office, while South Carolina's increased the amount of land a white man had to own in order to vote. However, the states generally all lowered the power of their governors and increased the power of their assemblies.</span>
