The hard snow walls of an igloo are good insulators that keep in body heat and also the heat generated by oil lamps, these are known as qulliq. This is why traditional igloos are commonly made out of snow rather than ice and this is because solid ice does not retain heat as well as blocks of compressed snow. In addition, the walls block the wind, which is often so bitter that it can make freezing temperatures feel many degrees colder. Also, insulation capabilities actually increase a few days after construction. Body heat and sun exposure cause the inside of the igloo to melt ever so slightly. When the igloo is unoccupied during hunting expeditions, the melted snow freezes over, turning into ice. Gradual thawing and refreezing turns the entire structure to solid ice, making it not only superstrong, but warmer than ever.

Radda [10]

The correct answer is B. People were denied their right to free speech

Explanation:

The Palmer Raids were a series of Raids by the United States Department of Justice led by Attorney General Michell Palmer during 1919 and 1920 which were part of the First Red Scare, a historical period in which American Government fought against a possible widespread of anarchism and Bolshevism. During these raids, multiple immigrants, communists, and anarchists were captured and many were deported. Additionally, the Palmer Raids were seen as a violation of the civil liberties as during most of the captures did not follow the legal process, and the captures were against freedom of speech which means the right to express opinions was not guaranteed as those anarchism or communism ideas were legally punished with prison and deportation which is against civil liberties.
