Answer:

Columbus described the Natives he first encountered as “timid and full of fear.” Why did he then capture some Natives and bring them aboard his ships? Imagine the thoughts of the Europeans as they first saw land in the “New World.”

Answer:

Columbus was born in Genoa, Italy, in 1451. Little is known of his early life, but he worked as a seaman and then a sailing entrepreneur. He became obsessed with the possibility of pioneering a western sea route to Cathay (China), India, and the fabled gold and spice islands of Asia. At the time, Europeans knew no direct sea route to southern Asia, and the route via Egypt and the Red Sea was closed to Europeans by the Ottoman Empire, as were many land routes. Contrary to popular legend, educated Europeans of Columbus’ day did believe that the world was round, as argued by St. Isidore in the seventh century. However, Columbus, and most others, underestimated the world’s size, calculating that East Asia must lie approximately where North America sits on the globe (they did not yet know that the Pacific Ocean existed).

Question:

If you lived on Mars and observed the solar system from there, _____________ would describe retrograde loops, ______________ would always be seen near the sun, and _________________ would never be visible as crescent phases

Answer:

1. All other planets

2. Mercury, Venus, and Earth

3. Jupiter and Saturn

Explanation:

Living on Mars, all other planets would describe the retrograde loops, while the inner planets (Mercury, Venus, and Earth ) would always be seen near the sun. Planets like the Jupiter and Saturn which are far away from the sun will never have a crescent phase as those that will have a crescent phase must be between the mars and the sun

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

The most intelligible choice to make (in my opinion) would be to deny my friends offer. Although I would love to go out with my friends I believe that the punishment I would recive from my parents would be terrible. I would explain the situation to my friend and ask to possibly go out another time when my parents would allow it. Trust is very easy to lose and extremely difficult to earn back and I would be very scared to disappoint my parents.

This is just my opinion tho! Hope this helps! :D
