what was unique about Wilmington &weldon railroad & the North Carolina when they were new? i’ll mark brainlist if i can!!
Answer:
The Wilmington & Weldon Railroad (W&W) was the new name adopted in February 1855 by the Wilmington & Raleigh Railroad (completed in 1840), which ran from Wilmington to Weldon by way of Goldsboro and Rocky Mount, bypassing Raleigh. As a central rail link along the Atlantic Coast, it carried heavy traffic during the Civil War and made a considerable profit (in Confederate currency) for its owners. Because the W&W had its own facilities for rerolling iron rails and did not lie in the path of military action until the very end of the war, it suffered somewhat less than many other roads of the region and entered the Reconstruction period dilapidated but intact.
For 20 years after the war, Robert R. Bridgers of Edgecombe County served as president of the W&W. With backers including the Walters family of Baltimore, he developed interlocking directorates, leases, and traffic agreements (using the W&W as a base) that led to the formation of the Atlantic Coast Line Company and the eventual merger with the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad (ACL). In November 1872 the W&W had been leased to its southern connection, the Wilmington, Columbia, and Augusta, but the lease lapsed when the latter road failed to pay the W&W dividend in 1877. Bridgers and his associates acquired control of the Wilmington, Columbia, and Augusta in October 1879, and in June 1885 they leased it to the W&W for 99 years.

Which of the following reform measures could voters use against a mayor they oppose?
a recall
an impeachment
a referendum
an initiative
Answer: It is A.a recall
A recall is the reform measure that voters can use against a mayor they oppose. This is the process by which voters can dismiss an elected officer through a referendum before the term of office ends.
Why was recall designed?The practice of recalling civil servants was an attempt to minimize the influence of political parties on representatives. Widely used in the United States, this recall was initially aimed at ensuring that elected civilians act in the interests of the constituency, rather than in the interests of political parties and their conscience. The actual dismissal is usually a resignation signed by a representative elected prior to taking office. During the term of office, if the representatives' performance does not meet their expectations, the letter may be challenged by the quorum of voters.
The correct answer is option A.

Millions of years ago, the ancestors of the modern horse were small
animals, only about 0.61 meters tall. We know this because
Answer:
Explanation:
The evolutionary lineage of the horse is among the best-documented in all paleontology. The history of the horse family, Equidae, began during the Eocene Epoch, which lasted from about 56 million to 33.9 million years ago. During the early Eocene there appeared the first ancestral horse, a hoofed, browsing mammal designated correctly as Hyracotherium but more commonly called Eohippus, the “dawn horse.” Fossils of Eohippus, which have been found in both North America and Europe, show an animal that stood 4.2 to 5 hands (about 42.7 to 50.8 cm, or 16.8 to 20 inches) high, diminutive by comparison with the modern horse, and had an arched back and raised hindquarters. The legs ended in padded feet with four functional hooves on each of the forefeet and three on each of the hind feet—quite unlike the unpadded, single-hoofed foot of modern equines. The skull lacked the large, flexible muzzle of the modern horse, and the size and shape of the cranium indicate that the brain was far smaller and less complex than that of today’s horse. The teeth, too, differed significantly from those of the modern equines, being adapted to a fairly general browser’s diet. Eohippus was, in fact, so unhorselike that its evolutionary relationship to the modern equines was at first unsuspected. It was not until paleontologists had unearthed fossils of later extinct horses that the link to Eohippus became clear.
A member of the legislature, Dr.Joseph Guillotine had introduced the guillotine as a more humane method of beheading than the uncertain ax. But the guillotine quickly became a symbol of horror True or false
Answer:
False.
Explanation:
The guillotine was, in fact, created by Dr. Joseph Guillotine, however, it did not become a symbol of horror, but the symbol of allowing convicts to be entitled to a death without torture.
Dr. Joseph Guillotine idealized the guillotine during the Enlightenment, when the methods of condemning accused of crime were carried out in a torturous manner and which caused a slow and very agonizing death. These methods began to be questioned, claiming that they diminished the right of a living being. In this case, Dr. Joseph Guillotine created the guillotine as a form of quick and painless death, as the condemned had their heads cut off quickly. This initiated a series of attempts to install a justice system where the right to life was maintained and those convicted of crimes went through a process of re-education and resocialization, instead of being executed.
