...This momentous question [Missouri compromise], like a fire bell in the night, awakened and filled me with terror. I considered it at once as the knell [sound of death] of the Union. It is hushed, indeed, for the
moment. But this is a reprieve [delay] only, not a final sentence. A geographical line, coinciding with a
marked principle, moral and political, once conceived and held up to the angry passions of men, will
never be obliterated [destroyed]; and every new irritation will mark it deeper and deeper . . . ---Thomas
Jefferson (Missouri Compromise)
“...If you persist, the Union will be dissolved [disbanded]. You have kindled [started] a fire which all the
waters of the ocean cannot put out, which seas of blood can only extinguish." —Representative Thomas
W. Cobb of Georgia, 1819
4. According to the above passage, which best explains why the Missouri Compromise would deepen sectional
conflict? (4.1)
a. Each act by Congress that increased tariffs would split the Union.
b. While some wanted slavery to end immediately, others wanted it to end gradually.
c. Americans would argue over the line until the issue of slavery was resolved.
d. Adding new states would have re-created the competition between east and west.

the answer is c sharecroppers were trapped in a cycle of poverty and debt.

explanation:

one of the major disadvantages of sharecropping system is that the sharecroppers or the planters are stucked in an unhealthy cycle of debts. this happens because planters will be allowed to loan merchandise from the land-owner and will soon be paid by the farmer in his share in the farm come harvest time. hope this !

i see you are doing the same test on usa test prep. cause you are in the same class as me

creation of israel, 1948. on may 14, 1948, david ben-gurion, the head of the jewish agency, proclaimed the establishment of the state of israel. u.s. president harry s. truman recognized the new nation on the same day.

this is what i find out on the internet but since u r in college you should be able to do a 500 word essay. its real easy all you got to do is look up history on israel and then what ever you find make sure to add the footnote - like who wrote it and where. or you can kind of make it like a story.

p.s. nobody is going to write a 500 word essay just for 50 points and a "brainliest answer"

good luck
