Washington Gladden’s ideas would most closely be tied to which period in US history?
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

A) Great Depression

B) Civil Rights Movement

C) Progressive Movement

D) Reconstruction

E) Civil War

The right answer is C. Progressive Movement

The Progressive Movement is based on the idea that the improvement of the human condition can only be achieved via the development of science, technology, and economic development. In this context, we can find the work of Washington Gladden (1836-1918). He was a US Congregational pastor and was one of the leading members of the Progressive Movement. His ideas are in consonant with the ideas of the movement. He believed the American workforce should be unionized in order to achieve its goals and have a bargaining force against exploitation. And also, as a defendant of the movement, he strongly criticized the idea of racial segregation diffused in American society.

Why do people hate hispanics, what did they do to deserve this hate?
Nana76 [90]
Is this a question on your schoolwork? Or just a general question? If it is general then I can tell you since I’m Hispanic. “Most people can only identify those Hispanics who look Native American, they are discriminated against. It seems that the real discrimination is against Native Americans, or anyone who looks like them.”

General answer: I think it’s cause people see us as foreigners and yes we are, but we moved to live a better life. The white people think we are taking their jobs and money. They don’t want us here cause of that.

How many people have only dominant traits?
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

From this, people often jump to the conclusion that the dominant trait is also the most common one. This isn’t always the case and there is no reason it should be.

Whether or not a trait is common has to do with how many copies of that gene version (or allele) are in the population. It has little or nothing to do with whether the trait is dominant or recessive.

Let’s take eye color as an example. The decision on whether to have brown eyes or not is pretty much controlled by a single gene, OCA2.

More on genetics

We can think of OCA2 as having two versions, brown and not-brown. The brown allele of OCA2 is dominant over the not-brown allele.

Nearly everyone in most of Africa has brown eyes. This isn’t because brown eyes are dominant over blue and green. Instead, it is because there are mostly brown alleles of OCA2 in the African population.

Northern Europe is a different story. In some parts of the continent, over 80% of the population has lighter colored eyes. Here the not-brown allele is more common even though it is recessive.

Now this allele isn’t exclusive, there are still brown-eyed folks in northern Europe. So why don’t their brown eyes dominate over time? Because in populations, dominant isn’t dominant over other people’s recessive gene versions. Your brown eyes can’t affect my kids’ eye color unless we get married.

Let’s do a thought experiment to make this clearer. To simplify things we’ll call brown eyes B and not-brown eyes b.
