1. The correct answer here is religious intolerance. The greatest number of people in this period came from Europe to the United States, nearly 20 million of them due to religious persecution they were experiencing in their own countries. America offered them freedom from this oppression.
2.The correct answer here is plantation system. South had predominantly agricultural industry that was based on the small private land units that were called plantations on which variety of products were being produced like sugar, cotton and tobacco
3.The correct answer here is enslaved labor. As I said in the previous question south's economy was based on agriculture and plantations which was a labor intensive job. This meant that the South need a large number of people to work on the plantations and the majority of those laborers were slaves who were a relatively cheap investment.
4.  The correct answer here is that the cotton gin required more slaves. The in cotton gin is one the main reasons cotton manufacturing was such a profitable business. Because this increased production this also meant the need for more slaves who would harvest the necessary cotton.
5. The correct answer here would be that Industrial revolution introduced new ways of manufacturing. Before the revolution the manufacturing was done in people's homes and it was slow and intensive process. With the advent of factories the manufacturing became more streamlined and faster resulting in an increase of goods.
6. The correct answer would be A. as they opened up settlement to the west. Both of these trails had the same starting point which was Independence, Missouri and they both moved to the West. The Santa Fe trail though then continues south later towards Mexico.
7.The correct answer here would be factories. Most of the people in the North worked in the factories which led to more industrialization and urbanization. The North also had much more skilled blue collar workers and higher population than the South.
