The correct answer is C. The cost of shipping goods from the Midwest decreased.

Explanation:

The Erie Canal was a man-made construction that connected New York state and territories in the Midwest including those near the Great Lakes. This canal was created at the beginning of the 19th century and helped the economy of the United States because it facilitated the transportation of goods between different territories. This implied products from the Midwest could be transported to the states in the east and this decreased the costs for shipping goods from the zones in the midwest. Moreover, the trade between the states involved increased. According to this, the correct answer is C.

Explain why there was so much conflict between and among so many religious groups. apush

diamong [38]

The difference of opinion and in particular with opposing opinions is a source of much conflict between and among so many religious groups. This derives from the sense of "entitlement" which comes from, in particular, monotheistic beliefs. As one group gathers in belief in one way and one god and that one god's system of rules, it naturally follows that that group will determine by logic, that all opposing beliefs are wrong, and that therefore the other religious groups are wrong in their beliefs. From this can arise conflict when one tries to overpower the other to have a bigger voice or control.
