Read the passages below, and answer the question that follows.
(ELA)
The King:

In the very olden time, there lived a semi-barbaric king, whose ideas, though somewhat polished and sharpened by the progressiveness of distant Latin neighbors, were still large, florid, and untrammelled, as became the half of him which was barbaric. He was a man of exuberant fancy, and, withal, of an authority so irresistible that, at his will, he turned his varied fancies into facts. He was greatly given to self-communing; and, when he and himself agreed upon any thing, the thing was done. When every member of his domestic and political systems moved smoothly in its appointed course, his nature was bland and genial; but whenever there was a little hitch, and some of his orbs got out of their orbits, he was blander and more genial still, for nothing pleased him so much as to make the crooked straight, and crush down uneven places.

The Princess:
...his eyes were fixed upon the princess, who sat to the right of her father. Had it not been for the moiety of barbarism in her nature, it is probable that lady would not have been there; but her intense and fervid soul would not allow her to be absent on an occasion in which she was so terribly interested. From the moment that the decree had gone forth, that her lover should decide his fate in the king's arena, she had thought of nothing, night or day, but this great event and the various subjects connected with it. Possessed of more power, influence, and force of character than any one who had ever before been interested in such a case, she had done what no other person had done,--she had possessed herself of the secret of the doors.

What is one similarity between the king and the princess in the passages?

1 . Both of them are purely evil.

2. They are both highly civilized.

3. They are both weak and timid.

4. They both wield great power.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer 2

One similarity between the king and the princess in the passages is that  They both wield great power. Thus, option 4th is correct.

How are the movements of tectonic plates related to natural climate change?

Answers

Answer:

warm air may be deflected to cooler regions by mountains

Explanation:

The plates slide on the layer on which they lie, a viscous-elastic layer known as the asthenosphere, which is elastic and liquid under short-term stress, and capable of convection and flow under long-term stress.

Tectonic plates also affect the climate through the formation of mountains. Mountains can have profound effects on the climate, especially on their impact on precipitation on the surrounding land. Higher points on the mountains tend to have lower temperatures, so that humid and warm air rises along the windy slopes of the mountains and cools, which reduces its ability to carry water, which in turn leads to precipitation (rain or snow).

What were the benefits of a plow and seed drill

Answers

Answer:

The benefits of a plow and seed drill is explained below in details.

Explanation:

The seed drill plants the seeds at the conventional seeding speed and bottom, assuring that the seeds are coated by soil. This protects them from being consumed by birds and animals or being drained up due to exposure to the sun.

The steel plows discarded the soil as the plow carved through it, rather than accumulating it on the board. The steel plow is also polished by the grinding change of the soil, preventing it from cleaner and sharper.

Kings say the dream of America is “as yet unfulfilled.” Do his words still hold true today?

Answers

Answer:

yes, because the world has not seen it's end we can only assume this is just the beginning. Not only are we still developing technology but we are creating a new path for ourselves and others. His speech was about how differences don't matter or they shouldn't but as it quotes "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness." This is the dream. The first things we notice in this dream is an amazing universalism. It does not say some men, but it says all men. It does not say all white men, but it says all men, which includes black men. It does not say all Gentiles, but it says all men, which includes Jews.  It does not say all Protestants, but it says all men, which includes Catholics.

PLSSSSSS HELP I WILL MARK BRAINLIEST
After Democratic triumph in the state elections of 1870 and aggressive federal intervention in 1871 and 1872, the formal Klan organization began to fade away. Local Klan-like groups continued to engage in racial and political terrorism, often calling themselves minutemen or rifle clubs, but they lacked larger organizational ties or even commonality of purpose. A romanticized memory of the first KKK legitimated their activities and, combined with the growing power of a Lost Cause mythology, contributed greatly to Georgians' acceptance of vigilante violence and lynching well into the twentieth century. By the 1890s, many men proudly claimed to have ridden with the Klan and thereby saved Georgia and the South from "Negro domination." This romanticized vision of the Klan was celebrated in popular novels and laid the foundation for the more openly organized Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, the second Ku Klux Klan, founded in Atlanta in 1915.

Jonathan M. Bryant

The Ku Klux Klan dissolved in the late 1800s. Which evidence from the text explains why this was the case?

The Democrats began to take control from the Republicans.
Klan members became less interested in the “Lost Cause.”
White southerners began to reject the KKK in growing numbers.
