Would their have been an uprising if the company had withdrawn the enfield rifles? why or why not?

Answers

The army was made up of mostly local conscripts, who were either Hindu and Muslims. A rumor quickly spread that the grease use in these rifles was either made of Beef Tallow, Pig Tallow or both.

For both, strict Hindus and Muslims, this was seen as a direct offense to their religious beliefs.

The Hongwu Emperor was _____.The Hongwu Emperor was _____.

the founder of the Ming dynasty
the founder of the Golden Horde
the emperor of the Song dynasty
the brother of Kublai Khan

Answers

The correct answer is - the founder of the Ming dynasty.

China in this period was in terrible conditions, as the Mongols were very cruel towards them, so there was a famine, diseases, peasant revolts, so he had a very hard job in front of him in order to reform and reconstruct the country. His reign can be seen as somewhat of a transitional faze in the Chinese society.

Which of the following is not a long-term health effect of the atomic bombings on Japan?A: increased likelihood of mental disabilities in future generations
B: the development of cancers like leukemia
C: inability to undergo x-rays because of false results
D: increased likelihood of future generations having birth deformities

Answers

The consequences of atomic bombings of Japan are far-reaching and have mostly long-term effects. The first option offered is a long-term effect, since it takes at least a few years or decades for the occurrence of mental illness in future generations. A sudden increase in and development of leukemia can occur in the short term, especially due to radiation, but overall the consequences are seen as long-term, as their appearance and development does not stop soon after the bombing, on the contrary, continues through generations. Increased ability for future generations to have birth defects is also a long-term consequence, as it relates to future generations, does not end in a few years.

The only short-term consequence is the inability to undergo X rays, because of the amount of radiation that already exists in the human body.
C. Inability to undergo X-Rays.
