What did Gorbachev offer the people that led to an end of the Cold War?
Monetary gain
Religious opportunities
Opportunity to travel
Freedom
Answer:
freedom
Explanation:
Ultimately, the deepest causes of the Soviet collapse were the decline of communist ideology and economic failure. This would have happened even without Gorbachev. In the early Cold War, communism and the Soviet Union had considerable soft power. Many communists led the resistance against fascism in Europe and many people believed that communism was the wave of the future.
But Soviet soft power was undercut by the exposure of Stalin's crimes in 1956 and by the repression in Hungary in 1956, Czechoslovakia in 1968, and Poland in 1981.
Although in theory communism aimed to establish a system of class justice, Lenin's heirs maintained domestic power through a brutal security apparatus involving lethal purges, gulags, broad censorship and ubiquitous informants. The net effect of these brutal measures was a general loss of faith in the system.
The Soviet economy's decline, meanwhile, reflected the diminished ability of central planning to respond to global economic change. Stalin had created a command economy that emphasised heavy manufacturing and smokestack industries, making it highly inflexible—all thumbs and no fingers.
As the economist Joseph Schumpeter pointed out, capitalism is "creative destruction", a way of responding flexibly to major waves of technological change. At the end of the 20th century, the major technological change of the third industrial revolution was the growing role of information as the scarcest resource in an economy.
The Soviet system was particularly inept at handling information. The deep secrecy of its political system meant that the flow of information was slow and cumbersome.
Economic globalisation created turmoil throughout the world at the end of the 20th century, but the Western market economies were able to reallocate labour to services, restructure their heavy industries and switch to computers. The Soviet Union could not keep up.
Indeed, when Gorbachev came to power in 1985, there were 50,000 personal computers in the Soviet Union; in the United States, there were 30 million. Four years later, there were about 400,000 personal computers in the Soviet Union, and 40 million in the US.

In one or two paragraphs, suggest a possible reason that similar systems of feudalism emerged in
Europe and Japan. Describe why professional warriors were important in both societies.
Answer:
Differences:
A key distinguishing factor between the two systems was land ownership. European knights gained land from their lords as payment for their military service; they had direct control of the serfs who worked that land. In contrast, Japanese samurai did not own any land.
Similarities:
Feudal Japanese and European societies were built on a system of hereditary classes; that is nobles were at the top, followed by warriors, with tenant farmers or serfs below.
In both feudal Japan and Europe, warriors served local lords and were made the most important class by constant warfare: called knights in Europe and samurai in Japan. In both cases, the warriors were bound by a code of ethics. Knights were supposed to conform to the concept of chivalry, while samurai were bound by the precepts of bushido, the "way of the warrior."
Explanation:
During the medieval and early modern periods, Japan and Europe did not have any direct contact with one another, however they independently developed very similar class systems known as feudalism.

How do the respiratory and circulatory systems work together to make gas exchange possible?
Answer:
Gas exchange between tissues and the blood is an essential function of the circulatory system. In humans, other mammals, and birds, blood absorbs oxygen and releases carbon dioxide in the lungs. Thus the circulatory and respiratory system, whose function is to obtain oxygen and discharge carbon dioxide, work in tandem.
Explanation:
brainliest plz
Answer:
The respiratory system works directly with the circulatory system to provide oxygen to the body. Oxygen taken in from the respiratory system moves into blood vessels that then circulate oxygen-rich blood to tissues and cells.

What did the Homestead Act declare (say)? Explain any issues people may have had with it?
Answer:
The Homestead Act, enacted during the Civil War in 1862, provided that any adult citizen, or intended citizen, who had never borne arms against the U.S. government could claim 160 acres of surveyed government land. Claimants were required to “improve” the plot by building a dwelling and cultivating the land.
The biggest problem with the Homestead Acts was the fact that the size of the homesteads — 160 acres — was far too small to allow for the landowners to succeed as independent farmers.

How did America support ww1 without fighting?
1. For service members and civilians alike, boosting morale was crucial throughout World War I, and much of that was done through humor. From decorative posters, to uplifting songs, to amusing cartoons, American society came together to bring lightheartedness and encouragement to soldiers serving abroad.
Comic drawings and cartoons, such as Bruce Bairnsfather’s “Old Bill,” were especially popular among the troops. Bairnsfather’s work was so popular that in the following years of World War II, he was employed as the official cartoonist to the American forces in Europe, and contributed to Stars and Stripes and Yank, the famous magazine published by the U.S. military during World War II.
2. Giving is Caring
Civilians donated to charities such as the Young Men’s Christian Association (YMCA) or the Salvation Army, both of which would later come together to form the USO during World War II, along with four other organizations. Donations from civilians went towards YMCA camps near the front lines, where they provided troops with a canteen, concert hall, library, game room and a quiet area – much like the USO centers of today.
The American Library Association raised funds to supply soldiers with books and magazines to read, and civilians purchased war bonds and postage stamps to help fund resources for the military, fueling a shared, fighting spirit across the country.
3. Letters Home
When far from home, troops craved a reminder of their loved ones. That is why organizations such as the National Jewish Welfare Board – which would later become incorporated into the USO – led letter-writing campaigns throughout the war to deliver mail to service members overseas.
Everyday Americans would gather in their homes, churches and community centers to write letters of encouragement to service members fighting overseas.

Read this section from **Chasing Lincoln's Killer* by James L. Swanson: "On the night of April 11, a torchlight parade of a few thousand people, with bands and banners, assembled on the semi-circular driveway in front of the Executive Mansion. This time Lincoln delivered a long speech, without gloating over the Union victory. He intended to prepare the people for the long task of rebuilding the South. When someone in the crowd shouted that he couldn't see the president Lincoln's son, Tad, volunteered to illuminate his father. When Lincoln dropped each page of his speech to the floor it was Tad who scooped them up." Which of these inferences about Booth is best supported by the text?
1:Being around postwar celebrations in Washington further fueled his rage toward Lincoln.
