Prior to the ratification of the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States, The Bill of Rights ( the first 10 Amendments to the Constitution) only applied to the Federal government. This meant that states were not obliged to adopt the Amendments and the laws that came as a result of them.
After the Civil War ended, the Fourteenth Amendment was created and ratified, the Bill of Rights was now applicable not only to federal courts but also to state ones. This meant that citizens were now more protected, as federal and states obligations are the same in most cases.
Answer:
This is an example of the status quo bias.
Explanation:
Status quo is understood as the existing way of something, mostly social, for example. The status quo bias is understood, then, as the preference an individual has of having <em>things remain the same</em> as they have been, without making much change.
In this case, people already have their services such as cable, internet or cell phone providers. They do not consider the telemarketer's offers because they do not want to make the decision to change, thus succumbing to the status quo bias of wanting things to remain the same.
Answer c is the right answer pretty sure
Explanation:
Answer:
b. social distinctions were more blurred than in europe.
Explanation:
<u>British taxes practically caused the revolution of the colonies</u>, therefore option "A" is not the correct answer.
That various religious and ethnic groups coexisted in the American colonies was no reason for colonists to tend to support British royalty (D).<em> In fact, diversity and immigration were one of the reasons why the thirteen colonies flourished so quickly.</em>
The colonists didn´t feel that British royalty did anything for them as they had to survive on their own, dedicating themselves mainly to agriculture. <u>The difference in wealth between the inhabitants of England and the colonists was very large, therefore the colonists did not feel entitled to the rights of English citizens (C). Not because the American colonies had a great diversity of religious and ethnic groups.</u>
Because the American colonies were home to diverse religious and ethnic groups, social distinctions were more blurred than in Europe (B). In New England, diversity was ironically the point in common that its inhabitants had and that would lead them to fight for their independence.
