Which statement best explains life for Mexican American migrant workers in Texas in the early 1900s?​

Answers

Jefferson’s passage on slavery was the most important section removed from the final document. It was replaced with a more ambiguous passage about King George’s incitement of “domestic insurrections among us.” Decades later Jefferson blamed the removal of the passage on delegates from South Carolina and Georgia and Northern delegates who represented merchants who were at the time actively involved in the Trans-Atlantic slave trade. Jefferson’s original passage on slavery appears below.

Answer: 1, Darwin proposed that species can change over time, that new species come from pre-existing species, and that all species share a common ancestor. In this model, each species has its own unique set of heritable (genetic) differences from the common ancestor, which have accumulated gradually over very long time periods.

answer: 2, organisms with similar anatomical features are assumed to be relatively closely related evolutionarily, and they are assumed to share a common ancestor. ... Since these structures are so similar, they indicate an evolutionary relationship and a common ancestor of the species that possess them

answer: 3, it provides evidence for evolution as embryo formation in widely-divergent groups of organisms tends to be conserved. Another form of evidence of evolution is the convergence of form in organisms that share similar environments.

answer: 4, Molecular similarities provide evidence for the shared ancestry of life. DNA sequence comparisons can show how different species are related. Fossils provide evidence of long-term evolutionary changes, documenting the past existence of species that are now extinct.

D) The United States government blockaded Cuba so outside powers could not interfere with its internal conflict.

Answers

Answer:

D) The United States government blockaded Cuba so outside powers could not interfere with its internal conflict.

Explanation:

The United States had to struggle extremely hard to win Independence during the Revolutionary War, and we were only able to get free of Britain once we got aid from France. Thus, we felt the need to protect and aid other countries in the Americas struggling for their Independence. We even sent a treaty to Europe telling them that if they came to the Americas they would be viewed as enemies and we could do as we pleased with them. Long story short, we felt the need to protect Cuba due to our own struggles and experience with trying to gain Independence and succeeding due to another nation's help.
