ugh Ms. Sue

So if 4 is not C what is it? I don't understand.

If 4 is not C then is it D?

ok thank u

so would the answer to number 4 be B

yes :)

4 would be c!

To answer these questions, let's break down the reasoning behind each answer choice and identify the correct answer.

For question 3, the question asks which idea is most closely connected with the support for the Mexican-American War. To find the answer, we can analyze the options:

A.) Manifest Destiny: Manifest Destiny was the belief that it was the right and duty of the United States to expand its territory from the Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean. This idea was closely connected to the support for the Mexican-American War because proponents of Manifest Destiny believed that the United States should annex Mexican territories as part of its expansionist goals.

B.) Transcendentalist Movement: The Transcendentalist Movement was a philosophical and literary movement that emphasized individual intuition and the relationship between humans and nature. This movement was not directly connected to the Mexican-American War.

C.) Great Awakening: The Great Awakening was a religious movement that occurred in colonial America during the 18th century. It focused on spiritual revival and religious enthusiasm. This movement was not directly connected to the Mexican-American War.

D.) Monroe Doctrine: The Monroe Doctrine was a foreign policy statement issued in 1823 by President James Monroe. It declared that the United States would not allow European colonization or any form of intervention in the Americas. While the Mexican-American War took place after the Monroe Doctrine was issued, the two ideas are not directly connected.

From the analysis above, we can conclude that the correct answer for question 3 is A.) Manifest Destiny.

Now, let's move on to question 4:

The passage provides information about the settlement of Texas and California, and the desire of some people in the United States to annex these territories. To find the answer, let's examine each option:

A.) Mexico and the United States claimed different national boundaries until the 1840s: This statement is true and supports the passage, as it explains the differences in territorial claims between Mexico and the United States.

B.) Mexico did not have very tight control over its northern territories: This statement is also true and supports the passage. It demonstrates that Mexico had some difficulties in maintaining control over its northern territories, which allowed for settlements and potential annexation by the United States.

C.) Texas and California needed U.S. military aid to gain independence from Mexico: This statement is accurate and directly supports the passage. It highlights the role played by the United States in aiding Texas and California in their fight for independence from Mexico.

D.) Texas and California were only sparsely populated before the 1820s: This statement is not supported by the passage, which mentions settlements occurring in Texas and California during the 1820s and 1830s.

Based on the analysis provided, the correct answer for question 4 is C.) Texas and California needed U.S. military aid to gain independence from Mexico.
