The cold war impacted every aspect of american life. discuss the domestic implications of the cold war. your essay should explain how the cold war affected higher education, the economy, immigration policy, civil rights, and civil liberties.

Investments in technology, weapons, and propaganda were central elements of the Cold War. Each side sought to prove to the world its superiority and that of the economic model it advocated. Competition surpassed the limits of planet Earth itself in the late 1950s with the so-called Space Race, that is, the battle for pioneering space conquest when, on October 4, 1957, the Soviets launched their first artificial satellite. of the planet, the Sputnik.

The cold war led American students to become more interested in science and math .  At that time the Americans were afraid of the communists and the rights of the civil were restricted by this. People were afraid and restrict by this.

The whole Cold War had very high prices, and that took a lot from both the United States and the Soviet Union.

Immigration policies were very strict, because US was very afraid of the communists invading the country.

no the answer is c only objects touching the earth's surface can be acted upon by an outside force

the earth’s crust is broken into separate pieces called tectonic plates (fig. 7.14). recall that the crust is the solid, rocky, outer shell of the planet. it is composed of two distinctly different types of material: the less-dense continental crust and the more-dense oceanic crust. both types of crust rest atop solid, upper mantle material. the upper mantle, in turn, floats on a denser layer of lower mantle that is much like thick molten tar.

each tectonic plate is free-floating and can move independently. earthquakes and volcanoes are the direct result of the movement of tectonic plates at fault lines. the term fault is used to describe the boundary between tectonic plates. most of the earthquakes and volcanoes around the pacific ocean basin—a pattern known as the “ring of fire”—are due to the movement of tectonic plates in this region. other observable results of short-term plate movement include the gradual widening of the great rift lakes in eastern africa and the rising of the himalayan mountain range. the motion of plates can be described in four general patterns:

collision: when two continental plates are shoved together

subduction: when one plate plunges beneath another (fig. 7.15)

spreading: when two plates are pushed apart (fig. 7.15)

transform faulting: when two plates slide past each other (fig. 7.15)
