Thoreau's 1849 "Civil Disobedience", is one of the most widely known essays about not following the law as an act to protest. Thoreau expressed is decision to not pay taxes to protest against slavery.

Answer:

D. She knowingly disobeyed an unjust law.

Explanation:

In "Civil Disobedience," Thoreau argues that a moral person is obliged to follow his principles and values. This is necessary for everyone, regardless of the commandments that other people give him. Therefore, if a person has a belief that opposes the law, he should follow his values, and not the law, because the law is unjust. This is similar to the situation Rosa Parks saw herself in. She knew that it was unjust for buses to be segregated, and even though this was the law, she decided to follow her principles and act against it.

In three to five sentences, evaluate the scientific evidence that supports the big bang theory and the steady state theory.
Lelu [443]

Answer:

The Big Bang Theory is the leading explanation about how the universe began. The scientific evidence of the theory is the expansion of the universe based on Hubble's law (as indicated by the redshifts of galaxies), and the discovery of the cosmic microwave background.

Steady-state theory is a view that the universe is always expanding but maintaining a constant average density, with the matter being continuously created to form new stars and galaxies at the same rate that old ones become unobservable as a consequence of their increasing distance and velocity of recession. However, it is disproved when quasars are discovered in the 60s.
