A. Spanish conquistadors bring their horses with them across the Atlantic. Some horses escape or swim to shore after a ship sinks. The Plains Indians become expert horsemen and buffalo hunters.
This was certainly not intentional since hardly the conquistadors would want their enemies to be stronger.
B. B. Rats are aboard European ships coming to the Americas. The rats spread disease and hunt unknown numbers of smaller animals to extinction.
This is hardly intentional. Rats were almost unavoidable back then and the Europeans just did not care much about them. They weren't thinking about how the rats would cause trouble in the Americas. They were "just rats".
So the only intentional one is:
C. Columbus brought pigs to the Americas on his second voyage. The pigs provided a valuable source of food for a growing population.
Columbus brought pigs for them to serve as food eventually and so they did.
Feelings were nervous and frightening

The correct answers to these open questions are the following.
Do you think the economic crisis that began in 2006 with the mortgage crisis has led to increased power for the presidency?
Not in that case. President Barack Obama faced one of his toughest decisions during the Freddie Mack crisis and the upcoming financial and Bank crisis in the United States. In the end, he decided to support the financial system, despite many medium and low-class Americans felt betrayed by the President's decision.
Do you think the current pandemic will result in increased presidential power?
It is probable that the actual President tries to increase his powers to make the kind of decisions needed to confront a health crisis that has turned to be an economic crisis that specialists say the US economy is in recession.
What kinds of increase in presidential power might come about as a result of such a crisis?
He can create the kind of legislation to help the country leave the economic crisis as soon as possible, knowing that he can use his veto power. As the commander in chief of the Armed Forces, he can send the national guard or some troops to reestablish the order in some regions of the country.
Do other branches of government also gain more power in such a crisis?
No, I don't think so. The President is the one who can increase his power during these difficult times over the judicial branch and the legislative branch.
