Why are machines & industrialization considered a "miracle" (especially to women)?
Answer:
Factories and the machines that they housed began to produce items faster and cheaper than could be made by hand. As the supply of various items rose, their cost to the consumer declined (see supply and demand). Women mostly found jobs in domestic service, textile factories, and piece workshops. They also worked in the coal mines. For some, the Industrial Revolution provided independent wages, mobility, and a better standard of living.

O A. Where tectonic plates are being pushed apart
O B. Along a fault line at a tectonic plate boundary
O C. At the center of a tectonic plate
O D. Where tectonic plates are being pushed together
At the center of a tectonic plate is the location are earthquakes least likely to occur. Hence, option C is correct.
What is a tectonic plate?Tectonic plates are massive pieces of the upper mantle and crust of the Earth. They are made up of both oceanic and continental crust. Earthquakes occur around mid-ocean ridges and important faults that create plate boundaries.
The heat generated by nuclear reactions taking place inside the planet's center causes the plates to move periodically toward and occasionally away from one another. This movement is also referred to as a tectonic shift.
There are four different types of boundaries between the tectonic plates as a result of their movement: divergent and convergent boundaries, transform fault boundaries, and plate boundary zones.
Thus, option C is correct.

A fish farmer intends to place a few cages along the coast of a large inland lake in Africa to grow a popular species of fish from North America. Which of the following is the most valid concern for people who practice traditional subsistence or commercial fishing in the area?
A.
If fish escape the cages, they may disrupt native species and reduce fishing production.
B.
The caged fish may consume all the nutrients in the lake water and cause a die-off.
C.
North American fish species produce excess nutrients that will create algae blooms.
D.
The local population will become accustomed to eating more fish, causing overfishing.
E.
The introduced fish will not be incorporated into local diets, and the new industry will fail.
Answer:
The answer is A.
Explanation:
In a new environment, a invasive species is not included in the natural niche yet and doesn't have any natural predators. In turn, this would cause the environment to bloom with these fish, along with different sub-species of this fish due to evolution and natural selection that would occur over the time it is an inhabitant.
