Amendment 13-abolition of slavery throughout us-Dred Scott v Stanford
Amendment 15-right to vote cannot be denied regardless of previous condition-United vs Reese
Amendment 19-women’s suffrage granted them right to vote-minor vs Happersett
Dred vs Scott-This case was about a man living in Illinois (a free state) with a slave (Dred Scott). When Dred Scott's owner died he became a free man, however Sanford's brother in law said otherwise. The laws said that he could be free, but others said that he was still a slave and that because of that he can't be a free man.
Us vs Reese-declared that the 15th amendment did not automatically protect the right of African Americans to vote (only listed the ways that states were not allowed to prevent them from voting)
Minor vs Happersett-presented herself at the polls in St. Louis in 1872 and when the registrar refused to permit her to vote, she and her husband sued him for denying her one of the "privileges and immunities of citizenship"; when they lost the case they appealed to the Supreme Court
I know this was a lot but hope it helped:)

16. Who did not benefit greatly from the Industrial Revolution?
polet [3.4K]

Answer:

A. Craftspeople

Explanation:

Impacts of Industrialization

As factories expanded to manufacture things other than textiles, the process of making goods became highly mechanized. And as machine production replaced handcrafts, the level of skill required to manufacture items went down. Operating a machine in a factory took far less skill than making something by hand. As a result, manufacturing products' manufacturing process became cheaper, allowing the middle classes to buy more consumer products. Along with this, however, the wages for working-class laborers dropped and some trades had a difficult time competing with machines. When factories and machines replaced workshops and handcrafted work, tradespeople became workers. As workers tied to an employer, they were forced to accept lower wages for less-skilled jobs. This shift from skilled to unskilled labor made it difficult for workers to demand better working conditions and pay since factory workers were easy to train and easy to replace. This meant that workers could do little about their low wages or the difficult working conditions in the factories.  

Working conditions in factories were incredibly harsh. Workdays were often as long as 16 hours with very few breaks. Factory conditions were uncomfortable and unsafe. With all the machines running, room temperatures could become very hot, and the conditions were crowded. Working the machines could be hazardous, and injuries and even deaths were common. And, despite all these risks and poor conditions, the wages were quite low.

Taya2010 [7]

The oxygen that are being produced by cyanobacteria is only enough for the weathering process. There will only enough oxygen that shall remain in the atmosphere when the rocks at the surface are properly and adequately oxidized.  However, as time goes by, evidences said that the amount of oxygen in the Archean atmosphere is actually increasing in a slow steady pace.
