The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached we can say the following.

Slavery continued to spread after the Revolutionary War because southern landlords needed slaves to continue the production of crops. These slaves worked for long hours in the southern plantations under risky conditions. Indeed, the southern economy depended so much on slaves.

The drafting of the Constitution reflected a growing divide between Northern and Southern states on the question of slavery in that slaves were considered or be counted as three-fifths of a person.

Although framers such as George Washington and Thomas Jefferson -who, by the way, owned slaves- opposed the institution of slavery, delegates during the Constitutional Convention of 1787 in Philadelphia Pennsylvania agreed on establishing a limit to allow slavery in the United States until 1808. This created more tense moments and divided the nation.

Given what you know about the geography and chronology of the Chavin and Nazca, what might explain the fact that the Chavin and
malfutka [58]

The need to maximize a limited access to water for both human consumption and agriculture might explain the fact that both Peruvian cultures - both agricultural civilizations - used underground aqueducts to collect and transport water to reservoirs that were located nearby. For instance, the rivers that supplied the Nazca people did not carry any water during part of the year, so they conceived an innovative system that allowed them to collect the water from the rain that filtered through the ground into underground galleries, which allowed them to prevent the loss of that water - they inhabited a desert area, after all. The Chavin civilization also inhabited arid and extensive coastal areas that required ample and complex irrigation systems, hence the importance of saving and transporting water.

What tool of the presidency did Johnson use to try to stop Congress’s stricter plan for Reconstruction?
notsponge [240]
The correct answer is veto.

A veto is the ability of the president to reject a law. For example, if the Senate and House of Representatives pass a law they need the president to sign it. The president can refuse to sign it which results in a veto. Then the only way the law would be implemented into American society would be by having the Senate and House of Representatives vote on it again. If both houses vote this law into place with a 2/3rd vote, then this would become law without the presidents help. This process is known as an override.
