Answer:

8.3C Describe how religion and virtue contributed to the growth of representative government in the American colonies. Religious freedom was a main cause for the establishment of the American colonies. Religious groups (Pilgrims, Puritans, Quakers, etc.) created communities that were self-governed.

Representatives to the federal government were elected by state legislatures and not by the people directly. During this period, the people were governed by their states, and thus the distance between them and their laws was not as large as it would later be under the U.S. Constitution.Representative governments are the cornerstone of democratic political systems because they allow citizens to decide who will speak and act on their behalf in the larger government.

Answer:

<u>Option C. To enhance memory and ensure maximum retention, one should focus on the meaning of the information and relate it to what one knows.</u>

Explanation:

According to the levels-of-processing theory, recall depends on the degree to which information is initially processed, hence to enhance memory and ensure maximum retention, one should focus on the meaning of the information and relate it to what one knows. The theory, identified by psychologists Fergus Craig, and Robert Lockhart in 1972, states that deeper levels of analysis produces longer term memories, while a more superficial level of analysis will most likely produce a short-term memory. This is why, they state, when trying to memorize something it is always important to focus on understanding the meaning of it and not to  use repetition or visualization methods.

California had declayered independince for 25 days befor news had reched them
kobusy [5.1K]
California declared its independence in June 1846, and became a very short-lived California Republic until July. The News that did not reach California then was that of the developments of the Mexican-American War. California did not want to remain a part of Mexico, as it felt neglected by it. However, they did not know that US Congress had already declared war on Mexico on May 13, because at that time there were no efficient means of communication on the continent.
