Describe the connection between human activity and environmental changes that occurred from 1900 to the present.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

There are so many environmental changes that have occurred from 1900 to present. This is due to the fact that, human race wants to make everything available for themselves.

The changes include

* Loss of biodiversity

* Depletion of ozone layer resulting to global warming

* Land degradation

* Urbanization

Answer 2

The connection between human activity and environmental changes is very apparent when you look at climate change and how the Earth’s terrain has changed in the past 100 years. People cut down an average of 15 billion trees per year (from an article on time.com), which amounts to about 1,815,000,000,000 trees cut down since 1900. This is as a result of technological advancement by humans, and human activity has affected many other facets of the environment. For example, as a result of the increased use of fossil fuels to power machinery, the increased process of extracting natural resources to the point of near scarcity, and the destroying of environments to satisfy human needs, the environment has been suffering greatly. One prime instance of this environmental damage is climate change, which is when the climate changes as a result of pollutants in the atmosphere. These pollutants are a direct result of the increased human activity in the machinery and technology industries, as the burning of fossil fuels and the operating of machinery release carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, damaging the atmosphere. The use of machinery and fossil fuels really began to pick up steam in the 1900’s. So, as a result of increased human activity in environmental affairs since 1900, the environment has suffered greatly, increasing the global climate, decreasing oxygen levels, and increasing the risk of UV ray damage to living organisms.

Who invented the cotton gin in 1793? a) Cyrus McCormick b) James Watt c) Eli Whitney d) John Deere

Answers

Eli Whitney invented the cotton gin in 1793. The correct option is C.

What did the cotton gin actually do?

Short-staple cotton, which was simple to grow in the Deep South but challenging to process, was separated from the fibers by the gin's sticky seeds. The gin made it easier to separate the seeds from the fibers, but the cotton still needed to be picked by hand.

Although Eli Whitney is most famous for developing the cotton gin, he was also the originator of the mass production technique. He developed a machine in 1798 that could produce interchangeable parts for muskets.

The cotton gin, created in 1794 by American-born inventor Eli Whitney (1765–1825), revolutionized cotton production by making the removal of seeds from cotton fiber much faster.

Thus, the ideal selection is option C.

What were the various goals of the colonial European powers in the expansion of their empires? To what extent were they able to achieve these goals? Where did they fail?

Answers

Answer:

Britain gave imperialism the boost by starting with strategic footholds, having many islands in the South Atlantic or Indian Ocean. From there, merchants had access to the interior; years later, the British launched into the exploration of the interior, and thus managed to reconstitute what was surely the largest empire in history, they controlled territories on all six continents. The objectives were to have access to the important commercial potential, territories within which all commerce, finances and customs were controlled.

However, these empires (Germany, France, Russia) could not be maintained. This time it was due to the development of nationalist movements that made colonial rule less and less legitimate.  Other factors were the impact of the two world wars. With the First World War (1914-1918) the legitimacy of European domination in the world began to be questioned and this legitimacy was shattered by the Second World War (1939-1945).

Mention 5 events that happened on the journey of the Israelites from Egypt back to the promised land.
Each event should be accompanied with the correct Bible quotation.

Answers

Answer:

The five events that happened on the journey of the Israelites from Egypt back to the promised land of Canaan were the ten plagues, the pillar of cloud and fire, the parting of the Red Sea, providing manna and quail for food, the Ten Commandments for the people.

Explanation:

In the Old Testament Book of the Bible, the Israelites were in captivity in the land of Egypt after the seven years famine. And with the birth of Moses and his encounter with God, the Israelites were to be released and taken back to the land that God had promised to deliver them.

The events that occurred from and during the Israelites' trip from the land of the Egyptians to the promised land are a means to show how strong and great the god of the Israelites is. Some of the events that occurred in between the journey are-

1. The ten plagues.

As seen in the book of Exodus, God brought the plagues to make known his power and also to torture Pharoah into submitting to Him. The ten plagues are blood (Exodus 7:14-22), frogs (Exodus 7:25-8:15), lice and wild animals (Exodus 8), pestilence of livestock, boils and thunderstorms (Exodus 9), locusts, darkness for three days (Exodus 10) and death of every firstborn (Exodus 11).

2. The pillar of cloud by day and fire by night .

God provided a pillar of cloud by day and fire by night to accompany the Israelites on their journey to Canaan. Exodus 13:21 and 22 says

"By day the Lord went ahead of them in a pillar of cloud to guide them on their way and by night in a pillar of fire to give them light so that they could travel by day or night. Neither the pillar of cloud by day nor the pillar of fire by night left its place in front of the people."

3. The parting of the Red Sea .

The Red Sea was parted to allow the Israelites to pass through to the other side while the Egyptians were after them in chariots. This is seen in the book of Exodus chapter 14. Verse 21 and 22 says

"Then Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and all that night the Lord drove the sea back with a strong east wind and turned it into dry land. The waters were divided, and the Israelites went through the sea on dry ground, with a wall of water on their right and on their left."

4. Providing them with manna and quail for food.

Exodus 16 mentions God providing them with manna from the sky for food and quail for meat. Verse 13 and 14 says

"That evening quail came and covered the camp, and in the morning there was a layer of dew around the camp. When the dew was gone, thin flakes like frost on the ground appeared on the desert floor."

5. Giving the Ten Commandments to the people to follow.

Exodus 19 reveals God giving the Ten Commandments to Moses at Mount Sinai. These commandments were to be followed by the people to lead a life worthy of Him.

Exodus 20 verse 3- 17 says

“You shall have no other gods before[a] me.

“You shall not make for yourself an image in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below.

You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the parents to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me, but showing love to a thousand generations of those who love me and keep my commandments.

“You shall not misuse the name of the Lord your God, for the Lord will not hold anyone guiltless who misuses his name.

“Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy.

Six days you shall labor and do all your work,

but the seventh day is a sabbath to the Lord your God. On it you shall not do any work, neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your male or female servant, nor your animals, nor any foreigner residing in your towns.

For in six days, the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, but he rested on the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy.

“Honor your father and your mother, so that you may live long in the land the Lord your God is giving you.

“You shall not murder.

“You shall not commit adultery.

“You shall not steal.

“You shall not give false testimony against your neighbor.

“You shall not covet your neighbor’s house. You shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, or his male or female servant, his ox or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor.”

the factors that account for Germany’s early success in the war.

Answers

Answer:

So Hitler's Germany was VERY successful in its conquests before and early in  WWll for this one reason: no one stopped him. Hitler was elected the supreme chancellor of Germany because he promised his people to get them out of the depression that was facing Germany since WWl. In the Treaty of Versailles, which was the end of WWl, it stated that Germany had to pay all of the reparations of the war because they "started it". Obviously Germany could not pay for all of this and they went into a deep depression. Hitler comes along promising to make Germany great again and is re-elected. Okay, enough back story. Now that Hitler is elected he believes that he is the leader of  a Third Reich that will last 1,000 years. With this new idea he also believes that Germans need more space to spread out if they are going to the dominating force in Europe. So, Hitler's army starts walking into surrounding countries and saying that they are his now...and no one stops him. Allied countries even appease Hitler by signing the Munich Pact which said he could have the Czechoslovakian Sudetenland if he promised not to invade the rest of Czechoslovakia. He later went back on his promise and captured the rest of Czechoslovakia which enraged France and England, but the last straw before war was declared was when Hitler decided to invade Poland on September 1, 1939.
