13. Populist Policies - Primary Issues. opposed tariffs, monopolies (railroad), sought government ownership of communication, transportation, credit with low-interest rates made available to farmers
14. Immigrants who arrived in America during the 1800s often faced prejudice and mistrust. Many had to overcome language barriers. Others discovered that the challenges they had fled from, such as poverty or religious persecution, were to be encountered in America as well.
15. The 1896 election is called an 'emotional' election year and it lead to significant changes that still have an impact on American politics more than 100 years on. During the Gilded age of America, US politics were at a stalemate with slow reform and no political party wanting to take a huge risk to get things done. The election was the first time that a proper media campaign took place for just not the presidential candidate but even for the nominee of a party. Hence, the democrats and Republicans went head-on, competing with one another and even raising some issues that the Populist party had highlighted. As such, America's third party, the Populist completely lost support and ceased to exist as a national party after the election. With very little support, they did not even have a regional presence. The Populist party ran on issues of economy and believed that the common good was above racism, something that did not catch on with a lot of people, especially in the South. In all this, the Republicans, which were once seen as the bastion of labor and liberty turned into a party for corporations and industry. The effects of this election can still be seen today, with a strict 2 party system in the US and republicans being seen as the party for business.

13. Success: Creation of Federal Income Tax; Direct election of senators. Failures: Government control of railroads; 16-to-1 silver-to-gold currency ratio
14. Immigrants had to face a large multitude of challenges from the masses a a whole. Language barriers were one major problem, as the immigrants did not speak English, so it was difficult for the to adjust to the Americas in any way, as they had no way of knowing what was going on as they didn't speak the language. Another major challenge was discrimination and abuse. Nativits did not take kindly to immigrants as they thought that they would be loyal to their home countries, so immigrants had to face a large number of racial abuse and, in some cases, lynching. Another problem they faced was poverty and unemployment. Immigrants tended to cluster together where housing could be afforded, which tended to be in the poorer areas, so they face lots of poverty, and resistance to American culture left them unemployed as they refused to adjust to life in a new area.
15. The election of 1896 could be considered a turning point as many people began to believe that it was time for a change. Republicans selected William McKinley and were standing by their gold based currency and high tarrif policies, while Democrats selected William Jennings Bryan and were defending silver based currency. Republicans won by only a million votes, but Bryan "earned more total popular votes than any other presidential candidate in American history to that date." Bryan only lost because some Democrats backed gold based system. Later, a Yukon Gold Rush and Spanish-American War gave the economy the boost it needed to recover, so populism began to fade. Populists began supporting Democrats and were drawn into the growing two-party system. The Party began to decline, so the Democratic Party absorbed many of its policies and voters. Because of this Democrats were viewed as being in favor of working class, while Republicans were for the elite and wealthy. Though populism faded, most of its polices succeeded and were eventually adopted or similar plans were adopted. The silver-to-gold currency ratio, and putting an end to national banks failed, however.

Explain the CAUSES and EFFECTS of erosion and deposition.
Answer: here you go
Explanation:: Erosion can occur naturally by wind, water, and gravity. ... Other effects of erosion include increased flooding, increased sedimentation in rivers and streams, loss of soil nutrients' and soil degradation, and, in extreme cases, desertification
causes:
Water flowing over Earth's surface or underground causes erosion and deposition. Water flowing over a steeper slope moves faster and causes more erosion. How water transports particles depends on their size. When water slows down, it starts depositing sediment, starting with the largest particles first.
effects:
Deposition changes the shape of the land. Erosion, weathering, and deposition are at work everywhere on Earth. Gravity pulls everything toward the center of Earth causing rock and other materials to move downhill.

What is the Mexican Revolution?The Mexican Revolution was an extended sequence of armed regional conflicts in Mexico from approximately 1910 to 1920. It has been called the defining event of modern Mexican history.
It destroyed the Federal Army and its replacement with a revolutionary army, and the transformation of Mexican culture and government. The northern Constitutionalist faction prevailed on the battlefield and drafted the present-day Constitution of Mexico, which aimed to create a strong central government. Revolutionary generals held power from 1920 to 1940. The revolutionary conflict was primarily a civil war, but foreign powers, having important economic and strategic interests in Mexico, figured in the outcome of Mexico's power struggles; the United States' involvement was particularly high.
The conflict led to the deaths of around three million people, mostly combatants.

Why did the Pilgrims and the Puritans both choose to leave their homeland and settle in New England?
A. They sought riches and trade.
B. They wanted adventure and fame.
C. They hoped to practice their religious beliefs.
D. They needed more land for their growing populations
Answer:
C.They hoped to practice their religious beliefs
Explanation:
The Puritans and Pilgrims' reason for coming to America was to put their spiritual practices into action freely.
The Pilgrims had a long and troublesome voyage over the Atlantic Ocean. A tempest brushed them off-kilter and opposed their arriving in Virginia; they landed further north in Cape Cod.
The Pilgrims chose to settle here and called it Plymouth. There was an issue with them staying; there was no type of government to pursue. The Virginia Company gave the Pilgrims a sanction to settle in Virginia.
