Write 8 sentences about how we can reduce pollution and wildfires.

Answers

Answer:

We can help reduce pollution by reuseing things that we can and by recycleing those that we can't.  We can also help by picking up trash that we see around us and throwing it away.  It will also help to use public transportation, bike, or walk whenever possible.  On the other hand we can also help reduce wildfires by extinguishing cigarettes properly.  Don't throw cigarette ends on the ground or out of car windows.  Only use barbeques in suitable and safe area, never leave them unattended.  and last never leave fires unattended and make sure they are fully extinguished after.  We can help make this world a more safer place to live with just these and other easy, simple steps.

6. Describe what occurs in the understory of the rain forest? *
7.What plants are found on the forest floor?
(this is all about The Amazon Rain Forest !!)

Answers

Answer:

3. Rainforests are the lungs of the planet. Plants absorb carbon dioxide from the air and replace it with oxygen. Rainforests like the Amazon act as carbon sinks that offset the carbon dioxide that is released into the atmosphere.

4. The animals living in the emergent layer of the Amazon rainforest include birds, bats, gliders, and butterflies. Large raptors, such as white-tailed hawks and harpy eagles, are its top predators. In rainforests on the island of New Guinea, pygmy gliders populate the emergent layer.

5. The rainforest canopy - An estimated 50-90 percent of life in the rainforest exists in the trees, above the shaded forest floor.

6. The understory is the warm, damp, and sheltered layer below the leafy tree canopy. Rain drips through the canopy, but only speckled sunlight gets through. Large-leafed shrubs that are suited to the warmth, shade, and moisture grow here. Smaller trees grow in patches of sunlight.

7. Plants that are found on the forest floor:

Giant Water Lily, Victoria Amazonica.

Heliconia, Heliconia latispatha.

Cacao, Theobroma cacao.

Passion flower, Passiflora edulis.

Coffee Plant, Coffea arabica.

Monkey Brush Vines, Combretum rotundifolium.

Why did the United States want more land from the Native Americans?(1 point) A. for meatpacking B. for cattle C. for oil D. for settlers. Please pick one and don't make up random stuff no explanation needed!!!

Answers

Answer : D

Explanation : I believe it is D because the United States needed more territory to expand for the settlers that already lived there

The United States wanted more land from Native Americans in order to make settlements for settlers.

Who are Native Americans?

Native Americans are the Indigenous peoples of the mainland United States, including Indigenous peoples of Hawaii, Alaska, and territories of the United States. They are known by other terms like American Indians, First Americans, Indigenous Americans etc.

The United States wanted more land from the Native Americans in order to settle its growing population, as well as the people coming from Europe to settle there.

Europeans had heard a lot of the new world i.e. the United States of America and wanted to settle there. So, they were moving to the United States of America in droves.

The United States of America also wanted its people, i.e. with whom it had an affinity or felt affiliated with, to populate the land. Thus, it forced the native indigenous population out of its land and gave that land to the settlers.

Hence, Option (D) is correct.

In a 1-2 paragraphs, describe how Strom Thurmond's influence in politics in South Carolina and the nation helped to change the political landscape in America.

Answers

Answer:

James Strom Thurmond Sr. (December 5, 1902 – June 26, 2003) was an American politician, military officer, and attorney who represented South Carolina in the United States Senate from 1954 to 2003. Prior to his 48 years as a senator, he served as the 103rd governor of South Carolina from 1947 to 1951. Thurmond was a member of the Democratic Party until 1964 when he joined the Republican Party for the remainder of his legislative career. He also ran for president in 1948 as the Dixiecrat candidate, receiving over a million votes and winning four states.

A staunch opponent of Civil Rights legislation in the 1950s and 1960s, Thurmond conducted the longest speaking filibuster ever by a lone senator, at 24 hours and 18 minutes in length, in opposition to the Civil Rights Act of 1957.[2] In the 1960s, he voted against the 1964 Civil Rights Act and the Voting Rights Act of 1965. Despite his support for racial segregation, Thurmond always denied the accusation that he was a racist by insisting he was a supporter of states' rights and an opponent of excessive federal authority.[3] Thurmond switched parties ahead of the 1964 United States presidential election, saying that the Democratic Party no longer represented people like him, and endorsed Republican nominee Barry Goldwater, who also opposed the Civil Rights Act.[4][5] By the 1970s, Thurmond had started to moderate his stance on race, but he continued to defend his prior support for segregation on the basis of states' rights and Southern society at the time.[6]

Thurmond served three times as President pro tempore of the United States Senate, and chaired the Senate Judiciary Committee from 1981 to 1987 and the Senate Armed Services Committee from 1995 to 1999. He retired in 2003 as the only member of either chamber of Congress to reach the age of 100 while still in office and the oldest-serving senator. His 48 years as a senator, a record at the time, is the third-longest in U.S. history behind Robert Byrd and Daniel Inouye.[7] Thurmond holds the record as the longest-serving member of Congress to solely serve in the Senate. At 14 years, he was also the longest-serving Dean of the United States Senate in political history.

Answer:

Explanation:

Answer:

The two nations I am choosing are Pakistan and India. I believe that these two of these nations have grown very much throughout the years and have gained a lot of independence and new knowledge. India has gained its Independence by not having to depend on the United Kindom as much, it also became more populated and more dependent by expanding its territory more and making more of a name for itself. Although India is doing good I also Learned that India and Pakistan are now having problems. Pakistan and India are having problems but I believe that It's helping both countries make they're military stronger and they know more about what they are doing when they go to war. Pakistan has improved so much with religion and making sure that Muslims and other faiths are able to believe what they would like.
