Correct answer choice is :


D) Declare their right to approve laws passed by Parliament on behalf of the colonies


Explanation:


The Congress had two main achievements. The first was a contract among the Territories to boycott British goods starting on December 1, 1774. The West Indies were frightened with a boycott unless the islands favored to non-importation of British assets. On December 1, 1774, the Continental Association was formed to boycott all communication with British goods. By changing the financial penalties put on the colonials, the members believed Britain would cancel its offensive Acts.

Some of the lands acquired within 100 years of Muhammad's death included Spain, parts of North Africa, and the territory east of Persia. A. True B. False

Answers

True.

The explanation for this is that Muhammad and his followers were able, with the new religion, to begin the unification of the Arab tribes. Quickly, after the unification of the Arab tribes, Islam, expanded in all directions. In a few decades, it occupied an area of ​​land comparable only to the Roman Empire at its peak. He would soon assume the role of commercial liaison between economically important areas of the world at that time: Europe, Africa and Asia.  The military progress achieved by the Muslims allowed them to isolate Europe, blocking trade especially through control of the Mediterranean Sea. For many historians, this accentuated a trend that had existed since the 5th century, geared to agrarian life, and which would lead Europe to feudalism.

A. True
After Muhammad's death, Islam spread to many vast georgraphic areas.
