The correct answer is C. Dams help make irrigation possible so that farming can occur in dry regions
.
Explanation:
Dams are barriers made of stone, concrete or loose materials, which are usually built in a gorge on a river or stream. They have the purpose of damming the water in the fluvial channel to raise its level in order to derive it, through irrigation pipelines, for its use in supply or irrigation, in the elimination of floods (to avoid flooding downstream of the dam) or to the production of mechanical energy by transforming the potential energy of storage into kinetic energy and this again in mechanics and thus a moving element is driven by the force of water. Mechanical energy can be used directly, as in the old mills, or indirectly to produce electricity, as is done in hydroelectric power plants.
One reason why the British soldiers fired on the Boston colonists during the Boston Massacre was because their were objects being thrown at them. These soldiers were harassed by an angry mob and hit by objects while protecting the Customs Office in Boston.
Another reason why the British soldiers fired on the colonists were because they were afraid of what might happen. Colonists, at this time, rebelled constantly against any symbol of the British government. This included tax collectors, who were tarred and feathered by colonists. These soldiers could have been worried that the colonists might attack them physically.
It was the "First Continental Congress" that was formed after the passage of the Coercive (Intolerable) Acts, since these Acts represented somewhat of a "final straw" in terms of royal mistreatment of the colonists.
