Describe the process of embalming. What type of knowledge were Egyptians able to develop because of it?
Answer:
During the surgical portion of embalming process, the blood is removed from the body through the veins and replaced with formaldehyde-based chemicals through the arteries. The embalming solution may also contain glutaraldehyde, methanol, ethanol, phenol, water, and dyes.
Answer:
The process of embalming:
- Preserving a body to delay the natural breakdown of cells, which begins when someone dies.
- It temporarily helps prevent the processes that cause the body to decay.
- It's a funeral practice that's been carried out for thousands of years in one form or another.
Explanation:
- The Egyptians realized that the organs would rot prior to the external parts of the body.
- This resulted in a process being developed to preserve the body that was extraordinarily lengthly and complex.
They used a process of mummification.

What were Franklin Roosevelt’s greatest failures? I’ll give brainliest If you provide a proper answer!
Answer:
Franklin Roosevelt's greatest failures had faulty cures for the economic slump. Hoover raised taxes on corporations and drastically hiked tariffs, moves that punished industry at a time when tax relief would have done the most good. Roosevelt’s New Deal policies did nothing to reduce unemployment and did little to stimulate the economy.
Explanation:
Answer:
Never got the US out of the Depression

Out lawed people from owning gold, their only hedge against inflation.
Devalued the dollar.
Created massive federal bureaucracy
Tried to Pack the Supreme Court.

Cut off vital Japanese aid forcing Japan to attack the US.
Convening Roberts Commission to clear himself of any blame, instead Hawaiian Commanders Short and Kimmel used as scape goats.
Japanese American interment camps.
Social Security act of 1935 which planted the seed for the welfare state.
Illegal imprisonment (also called "internment") of 110,000 ethnical Japanese people living in the US, most of whom were American citizens, during WW2.
Illegal confiscation of US citizens' gold savings to increase the power and revenue of the central and private banks. This made the impact of the next point much worse.
Devaluation of the US dollar which destroyed the savings of many Americans preventing them from living decently on their retirement savings.
New Deal which included wage and price control which lead to unemployment and shortage of goods.
Explanation:
The London Economic Conference of 1933. The worlds greatest economies (US, Britain, and France) got together looking for a common coordinated solutions to the great depression. Roosevelt rejected a joint approach and rather set the US off to find its own domestic solution.
Taking the United States off the gold standard and allowing the dollar to devalue against international currencies. This made US trade more competitive. Roosevelt addressed this in 1936 with a treaty
Trying to balance the budget in 1936.
Harry Truman: Harry Truman was vice president for a little less than 3 months (January 20, 1945 – April 12, 1945). During this time FDR gave him almost no information about the workings of the Presidency. When FDR went to Yalta, Truman found out about it after he returned; he had no input or visibility into FDR’s dealings with Stalin or Churchill or FDR’s post war plans. Truman didn’t even know about the Atomic Bomb until after he became President. Keeping Truman in the dark was a big mistake.
Sudo Mistakes
Yalta Conference. Feb 4–11, 1945; FDR agreed to allow Stalin to organize the post war government of Poland, he also allowed Stalin to oversee and conduct the agreed upon democratic elections which would construct the post war Polish government. FDR would be dead within 7 weeks of the end of the conference and Eastern Europe would spend the next five decades under soviet rule.
Admiral William D. Leahy, the president's chief of staff, complained to Roosevelt, upon departing from Yalta, that the agreement's language on Poland was “so elastic that the Russians can stretch it all the way from Yalta to Washington without ever technically breaking it.” “I know, Bill,” Roosevelt responded. “I know it. But it is the best I can do for Poland at this time.”
Soviet Union 20–27 Million dead
United States, 449,000 dead
Britain, 451,000 dead
FDR tried to get the best deal he could from Stalin, and ultimately the deal he was able to get, wasn’t a very good one for Poland nor Eastern Europe.
Supreme Court Packing
Trying to Pack the Supreme Court when it threatened to strike down all of his new deal policies was certainly one which might have seemed to backfired on him. One might conclude he won the war, but lost that battle. Reality is he won the battle but it weakened him for the rest of his pre WWII administration.
When FDR took office in 1933, he knew four older justices Pierce Butler, James McReynolds, George Sutherland and Willis Van Devanter would move to strike down all of his new deal proposals. These five justices struck down more congressional laws than any other court in the nations history before or since, including foundational new deal programs, National Recovery Administration (NRA) and Agricultural Adjustment Act(AAA).
FDR noted that the Supreme court in 1936 was the oldest court in the history of the country and asked congress to allow him to appoint a new judge for every judge age of 70 and over. Six Current judges were over the age of 70 in 1936 including all four of the horsemen. Pierce Butler(70), James McReynolds(74), George Sutherland(74) and Willis Van Devanter (77)
This set off an intensive debate which lasted for six months.

Why did so few cities develop in the southern colonies
Answer Below
Explanation:
The South relied on slaves rather than factories which is why industrialization developed more slowly there.
Answer:
Because the southern colonies revolved around agriculture
Explanation: the southern colonies made most of their profit through growing crops like cotton, Tabaco, and sugarcane, making densely populated cities redundant, this is the same reason why there were more slaves in the south, because they had more of a use for them and slaves could work on the plantations, if there was a slave in the north they would most likely do similar jobs to a housemaid.
What complications could have occurred for ex-slaves when their names were chosen or changed?
In some instances, Federal officials expedited the naming process by furnishing the names themselves, and invariably the name would be the same as that of the freedman’s most recent master. But these appear to have been exceptional cases; the ex-slaves themselves usually took the initiative—like the Virginia mother who changed the name of her son from Jeff Davis, which was how the master had known him, to Thomas Grant, which seemed to suggest the freedom she was now exercising. Whatever names the freed slaves adopted, whether that of a previous master, a national leader, an occupational skill, a place of residence, or a color, they were most often making that decision themselves. That was what mattered.

Bubonic Plague Still Kills Thousands
By Tia Ghose - Assistant Managing Editor September 27, 2013
Buboes, a symptom of bubonic plague, which is blamed for the black death
Bubonic plague, the most common form, is associated with painful, swollen lymph nodes, called buboes as shown above. After an incubation period of two to six days, symptoms appear, including severe malaise, headache, shaking chills and fever. Plague can also infect the blood or lungs. The latter form, pneumonic plague, can be transmitted person to person.
(Image: © CDC)
Bubonic plague, the deadly scourge that wiped out half of Europe during the Middle Ages, still lurks in pockets of the globe, new research suggests.
Although plague is now rare in Europe, it recently sickened more than 10,000 people in Congo over a decade, and cases still occasionally emerge in the Western United States, according to a study published Sept. 16 in the American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene.
The plague bacteria, Yersinia pestis, had lain dormant in China's Gobi Desert for centuries. But in the 1300s, it emerged with a vengeance, fanning out via trade routes from Asia to Europe and killing millions of people along the way. The plague was transmitted by fleas harbored by rats, which flourished in the overcrowded, filthy cities of the Middle Ages. By the end of the 1500s, between a third and half of Europe's population had died from the Black Death. [Pictures of a Killer: Plague Gallery]
Even during the 1900s, the plague still killed millions of people, but since then, the advent of better hygiene in cities and swift treatment with antibiotics has reduced this erstwhile killer into a rare disease.

Still present
Still, plague outbreaks still flare up around the world.
According to the new study, which tallied the reported cases of plague around the world between 2000 and 2009, more than 20,000 people became infected during that time. People contracted the disease via rodents, bad camel meat and sick herding dogs, the report said. Cases in Libya and Algeria re-emerged after decades of absence.
The biggest burden was in Africa: in Congo 10,581 people contracted plague, followed by Madagascar with 7,182 cases and Zambia with 1,309 cases.
"These events, although showing progress, suggest that plague will persist in rodent reservoirs mostly in African countries burdened by poverty and civil unrest, causing death when patients fail to receive prompt antimicrobial treatment," the authors wrote in their paper.
In the United States during that time period, 56 people contracted the plague and seven died. The cases occurred mainly because plague has become endemic in squirrels and wild rodents in the American West. Two of the fatalities were scientists: one who had conducted an autopsy on a wild mountain lion, and another who worked with plague bacteria in the lab.
Despite being a hotbed of plague in times past, Europe logged very few cases of the disease in the past decade. That may be because European cities keep their rodent populations in check, so the potential hosts for plague aren't as prevalent, the researchers said.
Answer:
Bubonic Plague Spread
Bubonic plague is typically transmitted by direct contact with infected tissue or bodily fluids, bites from infected rodent fleas, or inhaling infected droplets. The disease is most commonly spread through the bites of infected fleas. The spread of bubonic plague can also occur when someone handles infected materials or an infected animal and the bacteria enter through the skin.
Bubonic Plague Spread: An Overview
The bacteria that cause plague (Yersinia pestis) are found throughout certain parts of the world, most commonly in rats, but occasionally in other wild animals, such as prairie dogs. Transmission of bubonic plague from these infected animals generally occurs in one of three ways:
Inhaling infected droplets
Direct contact with infected tissue or bodily fluids
Bites from infected fleas.
The Spread of Bubonic Plague Through Bites
Bubonic plague is spread to humans or animals usually through the bites of infected rodent fleas (see Plague and Animals for other animals that can transmit plague). During rodent plague outbreaks, many animals die and their hungry fleas seek other sources of blood to survive. It is risky for people and animals to visit places where rodents have recently died from plague, because they are more likely to be bitten by infected fleas.
This method of transmission accounts for about 85 percent of the human cases of plague.
What About Direct Contact?
The spread of bubonic plague can also occur through direct contact with infected tissue or bodily fluids. For example, people can become directly infected with plague if the plague bacteria enter through the person's skin when handling infected animals.
House cats also are susceptible to plague. Infected cats become sick and may directly spread plague to people who handle or care for them. Plague-infected fleas can also be brought into the home from dogs or cats.
