<span>JAMES K. POLK. The acquisition of Texas, New Mexico, and California took place over a period of about 10 years and three presidents. It started in 1836 with President Martin van Buren who attempted to annex Texas but did not want a war with Mexico. President van Buren's successor John Tyler continued with van Buren's efforts and managed to create a Treaty of annexation in 1844, but did not get the necessary votes from the senate for ratification. Then came President James K. Polk. President Tyler and President-elect Polk together were successful in obtaining the votes for the annexation of Texas in 1845. The succeeding events; the Oregon Treaty with the British in 1846 and the signing of the Treaty of Guadalupe-Hidalgo in 1848, lead the way for the acquisition of not only Texas, but New Mexico, California, Nevada, Arizona, Utah, Washington, and Oregon. This is considered to be the largest acquisition of land the United States has ever experienced.</span>

PLEASE HELP!! Write one or two paragraphs identifying the factors that can influence human development. Describe at least four d
levacccp [35]

Answer:

The environment plays a critical role in the human development. The physical and psychological stimulation the human receives differs from a city environment to country environment. Some of the environmental factors influencing early human development are the physical surroundings and geographical conditions of the area as well as the social environment and relationships with family and peers. Exercise is also very important. Playing outdoors and doing sports help the body gain muscular strength and bone mass. Children who exercise keep them healthy and strengthen their immune system.

Nutrition is a critical factor in growth because the body needs to build and repair itself. The food we eat give us the vitamins, minerals, proteins, carbohydrates, and fats we need for good development of the brain and body. Overeating can lead to obesity and health problems so it's important to know when to stop and start. Family love and care are what impacts the children the most. Being taught what is right and wrong and being surrounded by love and care give positive growth to children. Spending time with each other and having deep meaningful conversations help with social skills. People who come from a negative family where they are abused and neglected have a difficult time with basic social skills and bonding with other people.

By doing this, your self image will be boosted, directly affecting your confidence which, in return, will raise your self esteem!

All of this can also be inversed; not striving for physical wellness can cause fat buildup, making your self image to be negative and lowering your self esteem. Not as many hormones can be created, thus more self esteem is lost.

(note: this is a short answer, im doing a test so couldn't go in depth. Hope this helps though! :)
