Defend your position on who should have the right to vote and why.
Answer:
I should have the right to vote because i am a U.S citizen Naturalized or born here i have the right to vote because this is the great American country and it says in the bill of rights i have the right to vote no matter color, race or any minority group can not stop me from my Civic responsibility
Explanation:
PLEASE GIVE ME BRAINLIEST
Answer:
In the constitution, it gives the right of every naturalized or American citizen over the age of 18 the right to vote. It doesn't matter if you are uneducated, bilingual, or from a poor class. Everyone should have the right to vote. This is because America is a vast country. If we put restrictions on who could vote, we would be excluding some very important demographics. If most of our society is poor, and we only let rich people vote- most of our citizens would not be taken care of. If we only let white men vote, our country would be unfair to those who don't meet that criteria.

Inca terrace farming and Aztec floating gardens are example of? Is the answer choice 1 (geography) or choice 3 (agriculture)
The correct answer is A. The ability of civilizations to adapt to their region's physical geography.
Explanation
Adaptive ability refers to the ability of an organism to adapt to the physical conditions of its environment. Humans are the best example of adaptability, for example during history civilizations have adapted to conditions such as cold and snow, heat and desert, wet coasts, high and dry environments among others. In the case of the Mesoamerican indigenous cultures, a sample of their adaptability are the cultivation terraces developed by the Incas as a sign of their adaptation to the rugged environment of the Andes mountains. In the case of the floating gardens of the Aztecs, it is a form of adaptation in which due to the existence of a large lake in their territory, they had to cultivate in floating gardens located on water to grow their food. Therefore, the correct answer is A. The ability of civilizations to adapt to their region's physical geography.
