What is the reason Hawaii and Alaska are not considered part of the contiguous United States?

They were the last two states admitted to the Union.
They are not located next to the other states.
They are not on the North American continent.
They were excluded by a vote taken in the US Congress.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Contiguous means 'sharing a common border; touching' and so Hawaii and Alaska are not considered contiguous because they are not a part of the continental USA. Hawaii is an island and Alaska is connected to Canada- neither actually, touches any part of the U.S. Hope this helps :))

Answer 2

As both Hawaii and Alaska are not on the North American continent, thus they are not considered part of the contiguous United States. Hence, Option C is correct.

What is contiguous?

The term contiguous formally means that the things that are in touch with each other or they are next to each other. In simple terms, when the thing is in actual contact with another thing, or they are touching the boundary of each other. For instance, there is a contiguous point where 48 states meet each other, within the earthquake fire is contiguous, and many more.

There are the words that act as the synonym for contiguous. They are adjacent, adjoining, and juxtaposed. All the terms have the same meaning which is "being in close proximity," As per the information, Hawaii and Alaska both are located at a location that is not on the North American continent.

Thus, Option C is correct.

How did Manifest Destiny mean different things to Americans and immigrants? Why

Answers

Manifest Destiny is a term for the attitude prevalent during the 19th century period of American expansion that the United States not only could, but was destined to, stretch from coast to coast. This attitude helped fuel western settlement, Native American removal and war with Mexico.

Answer:

Manifest Destiny was the belief that that God destined the Americans to move west, for Native Americans this meant that their land was being taken by force. The immigrants that built the transcontinental center railroad were from china and ireland. These immigrants were often injured and died because of the conditions that they were working in.  Also Native Americans were forced to attend the school Carlisle to change their culture and make the more like the whites.

Answers

Answer:

Ellis Island doctors were particularly watching for signs of contagious diseases.

Explanation:

The "central idea" in a paragraph is also known as the "key idea." It tells you what the paragraph is all about and it is very essential in order to understand the entire text. It is supported by other information in the text–you call this information as "supporting details."

The doctors on the island were focusing their work towards treating people with contagious diseases (a disease that is transmissible from one person to the other). They didn't focus on people with incurable diseases. Those with contagious diseases were treated, cured and released. All of these are supporting details that make the central idea clear to the reader.

This weapon was a long curved arc in the form of a "D." It was used by the knights in battles such as Crecy, Poitiers, and Agincourt. Other weapons were used in those armed confrontations as was the case of poleaxes, lances, and different kinds of swords.

We are talking about the turbulent years of the Hundred Years War that started in 1337 and ended in 1453. The War was confronted by Great Britain vs. France. The British won the war.
