History

Answer:

John Locke essentially believed in and helped to develope what is now known as the "Social Contract Theory". (This wasn't an actual written agreement, it was more of an unspoken rule.)

The whole idea behind the Social Contract Theory is that people are expected to give up some of their natural rights, and in return they receive protection and other privileges from the government. Another benefit to this idea, was that if the government were to ever get too powerful and fail to protect the people's rights, since it's an agreement between the government and the people, the people have all the right to overthrow that government. In the declaration of independence people also have similar rights, that are listed there for us to protect us.

What are the characteristics of the Middle Colonies?
weeeeeb [17]
What / or who are they: Delaware, Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey

Why middle: These were the 4 of the 13 original colonies that were between the northern and southern colonies.

Religion: this is the sentence you really like to write. There were all sorts of religions present, but not one of them could dominate. These 4 colonies had Lutherans, Mennonites, Calvinists (mostly Dutch), and Presbyterians. 

Commerce: mostly agriculture at the time, but not restricted to 1 crop as the south was. Had good ports and growing cities (New York, Philadelphia).  I like to include the well respected intellectual hotbed of people there like Ben Franklin.

What geologic process released large amounts of water vapor into Earth's early atmosphere?
RSB [31]

The correct option is D. Volcanic eruption  released large amounts of water vapor into Earth's early atmosphere.

Earth’s first atmosphere had lots of water vapor but it almost lacked oxygen. Eventually, frequent volcanic eruptions put several different gases into the air. These gases created a new type of atmosphere for Earth. The volcanic eruptions spewed gases such as nitrogen, carbon dioxide, hydrogen, and water vapor into the atmosphere, but no free oxygen. Without oxygen, there could not be life on Earth.
