1: To compare and contrast how the North and South organized their armies, we need to consider the different actions taken by each side.
- The North passed conscription, or draft, laws, which means they required men to serve in the army. This was done to ensure they had enough soldiers for the war effort. So, the item "passed conscription laws" would go in the category "North".
- Both the North and South offered bounties to volunteers. This means they incentivized individuals to join the army by offering them a financial reward. So, the item "offered bounties to volunteers" would go in the category "both north and south".
- The South offered ways for wealthy citizens to avoid serving. This suggests that individuals with wealth could find ways to avoid military service, possibly by paying substitutes to serve in their place. So, the item "offered ways for wealthy citizens to avoid serving" would go in the category "south".
- It is true that African Americans were forced to serve in the army, but this was primarily done by the South. So, the item "forced African Americans to serve in the army" would go in the category "south".
2: Booker T. Washington is noted for establishing the Tuskegee Institute. The correct answer is C. establishing the Tuskegee Institute.
3: Theodore Roosevelt's impact on the election of 1912 can be best described as maintaining progressivism as an important political movement. The correct answer is C. Progressivism remained an important political movement.
4: The effects of the Reconstruction Amendments can be attributed to the specific amendments:
- The rejection of the fourteenth amendment by President Johnson and former Confederate states led to the start of Radical Reconstruction. So, the effect "its rejection by Johnson and former Confederate states started the period known as Radical Reconstruction" would go with the fourteenth amendment.
- The passage of black codes by many Southern states to keep racial discrimination legal was a result of the amendments. So, the effect "many Southern states passed black codes to keep racial discrimination legal" would go with the fifteenth amendment.
- The angering of women's rights leaders was not a direct consequence of any of the amendments. So, the effect "it angered women's rights leaders" would not be associated with any particular amendment.
- The imposition of poll taxes by many southern governments, which required individuals to pay to vote, is associated with the fifteenth amendment. So, the effect "it caused many southern governments to pass poll taxes, which meant a person had to pay to vote" would go with the fifteenth amendment.
