Take care, everyone!😁
The correct answer is: They rarely attained landownership.
To determine the correct answer, we can start by examining each statement and eliminating the ones that do not apply to all the groups listed.
- "They could all be legally owned as slaves": While it is true that African Americans and indentured servants could be legally owned as slaves, this statement does not apply to women, children, Native Americans, or the working class. Therefore, we can eliminate this statement as the correct answer.
- "They were prohibited from working certain hours by law": While it is true that certain restrictions may have been placed on the working hours of some groups, such as children and indentured servants, this statement does not apply to all the listed groups. Native Americans, African Americans, and women were not specifically targeted by such laws. Consequently, we can eliminate this statement as the correct answer as well.
- "They worked to achieve better representation in Congress": This option is the only one that applies to all the listed groups. Women, children, indentured servants, Native Americans, African Americans, and the working class all had individuals or organizations advocating for their representation in Congress during the late 1700s and early 1800s. Therefore, this statement is the common characteristic shared by all the groups.
Therefore, the answer is "They worked to achieve better representation in Congress."
No. Re-read and re-think.
Nope.
That's two guesses. Now you're on your own.
