Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

The correct answer is C. The California Gold Rush did not create a serious labor shortage in California but on the contrary, as it generated a massive expansion of labor in that state.

Explanation:

The California Gold Rush was a social phenomenon occurred in the United States between 1847 and 1855, characterized by the large number of immigrants who came to the vicinity of San Francisco in search of the metal. This phenomenon began near the town of Coloma, when gold was discovered in Sutter's Mill. When the news of the discovery spread, around three hundred thousand people emigrated to California from the rest of the United States and other countries.  

The first gold seekers, called forty-niners, traveled to California by ship on the Cape Horn route or in caravans crossing the continent. At first, gold seekers collected gold in streams and riverbeds using simple techniques such as screening, but later developed more sophisticated methods for extracting gold that were adopted throughout the world. Some of these seekers of fortune became millionaires, but most were left with little more of the goods they had when the Gold Rush began.

The effects of this sudden migration were spectacular. Before the gold rush, San Francisco was a tiny village, and with the fever the village it became a city. Schools, roads and churches were built, and other towns were founded. A legal and governmental system was created, which led to the admission of California as a state of the Union in 1850. New means of transportation, such as the steamboat, entered service in the state, and railway lines were laid. The business of agriculture was also started, the second fastest growing item in California.

In United States v. Nixon, the Supreme Courts ruling made it clear that?

Answers

Answer:In United States v. Nixon, the Supreme Court’s ruling made it clear that (A. the executive branch is the most powerful branch, but the president must still obey the law.)

Explanation:

In the United States v. Nixon case, the Supreme Court ordered Nixon to deliver the unedited tape recordings and documents related to the Watergate Scandal, an event in which he was involved. However, the President refused to do so, claiming his "Executive Privilege", that is to say, his right as President to withhold information from other government branches to preserve confidential communications within the executive branch or to secure the national interest.

Nevertheless, the Court stated that the executive privilege had limits and it wasn't immune from judicial review, regarding the demands of due process of law, and he ought to show the evidence.

This ruling made it clear that the executive branch should not have more power than other branches of government.

The counterculture of the 1960s was an anti-establishment cultural phenomenon that developed throughout much of the Western world between the mid-1960s and the mid-1970s. The aggregate movement gained momentum as the Civil Rights Movement continued to grow, and would later become revolutionary with the expansion of the US government's extensive military intervention in Vietnam. As the 1960s progressed, widespread social tensions also developed concerning other issues, and tended to flow along generational lines regarding human sexuality, women's rights, traditional modes of authority, experimentation with psychoactive drugs, and differing interpretations of the American Dream. Many key movements related to these issues were born or advanced within the counterculture of the 1960s.
