Answer with Explanation:

"Railroads" played a vital role regarding empire-building in<em> Afro-Eurasia.</em> They became essential especially during the "Age of New Imperialism" <em>(1870s). </em>It aided the locomotion that was needed for great empires. <u>Europe became more powerful</u> because the <em>railroads, together with money</em>, allowed them to control other countries, especially the agrarian ones.

It allowed them to gain control of <em>other nation's</em><em> natural resources </em>as well. One example of this are the "trunk lines" which connect the commercial centers with the seaports in Africa. This allowed the <em>gold fields</em> and<em> diamond fields</em> to be directly connected to the port. This were then destined to the <em>factories </em>and <em>markets</em> in Europe. The railways (locomotives) also extended to other areas including Asia such as <em>China, Thailand, India, etc</em>.

Answer:

Check Explanation section.

(Plot, setting, style, figurative language).

Explanation:

Starting from the introducing words that later lead to the PLOT, that is the statement; "Where’s Blunt?" Shows the style In which Hatch impatiently wants to meet with Blunt. We can see how Allen uses literary elements and techniques to convey what Hatch’s interactions with other characters reveal about him.

Also, Allen make use of FIGURATIVE LANGUAGE in the book by making use of the sentences such as the two sentences below;

(1). "He spoke to a moving window."

(2). '' Mamma spoke from the dark cavelike inside".

The blinking of the eyes shows Blunt's behavior and the use of "She was sposed..." Shows Hatch character that is to say the use of REPETITION.

Trava [24]

Answer:

-6.7 %; Hurt  

Explanation:

1. Calculate Maddie's inflation adjusted income

\text{Inflation adjusted income} = \text{2012 income} \times \dfrac{\text{2013 CPI}}{\text{2012 CPI}}\\\\= 33 000 \times \dfrac{125}{110} = \$37 500

Maddie should be earning $37 500 in 2013 just to keep up with inflation.

2. Calculate the percent change in Maddie's real income.

Maddie is "real" salary is only $35 000.

\text{\% Change} = \dfrac{\text{real - expected}}{\text{expected}} \times 100 \, \%\\\\= \dfrac{35 000 - 37 500 }{37 500} \times \, 100 \% = \dfrac{-2500}{37 500} \times 100 \, \% = \mathbf{-6.7 \, \%}

The percent change in Maddie's real income is -6.7 %.

Maddie was certainly hurt by this inflation.

(a) Describe the effect on chlorophyll-containing photosystems when the chlorophyll molecules absorb photons of light.
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

Photosynthesis begins in chlorophyll-containing photosystems.

Explanation:

Photosynthesis begins in chlorophyll-containing photosystems when the chlorophyll molecules absorb photons of light. This energy passes through other chlorophyll molecules, towards the reaction center of Photosystem II. The researcher should use plant with normal enzyme as a control with a plant having mutant enzyme. A plant that has multiple photosynthetic pigment has greater fitness as compared to plant that has only one type of photosynthetic pigment because multiple pigments absorb different wavelengths of light that allows the plant to capture the maximum amount of energy from the sun for photosynthesis.
