Why did benjamin franklin refuse to write the declaration of independence? a. he did not want his humor to distract from the document's purpose. b. he was not from a southern colony. c. his poor vision made it difficult to write.

A. He did not want his humor to distract from the document's purpose.  

Explanation:

Benjamin Franklin is considered to be one of the founding fathers of United States.

He was a versatile person, a scientist, humorist, statesman, civic activist and a diplomat. Ben had great sense of humor which was depicted in his great history of pranks. In one of the essays , "An Economical Project for Diminishing the Cost of Light" he frankly wrote that French people can save  64 million pounds of wax if they wake up early in the morning.He hilariously gave the ideas of  ringing church bells and firing cannons as an alarm clock to wake people in early morning.

His humor was the reason why he refused to write Declaration of Independence because he though his subtle jokes anywhere in the declaration can distract from the people from the document's purpose. Therefore, he recommended that Thomas Jefferson  should write it in place of him.

the potatoes have high sugar concentrations and although these potatoes were different we could seethe effects that their sugar concentrations had in different environments. for example, the potatoes in sample a, were placed in pure water. this created a hypertonic environment and caused the potatoes to draw in water from its surroundings. we saw the opposite happen with the potatoes in sample b when placed in the sodium chloride solution. the potatoes in this case were in a hypotonic solution and therefore lost water to their surroundings.
