When four-fifths of the most representative men in America are pronounced unfit for war, what shall we say of their fitness to father the next generation? The time was when alcohol was received as a benefit to the race, but we no longer look upon alcohol as a food but as a poison. . . . Alcoholic degeneracy [deterioration] is the most important sanitary [health] question before the country, and yet the health authorities do not take action, as alcohol is entrenched [well established] in politics. Leaders in politics dare not act, as their political destiny lies in the hands of the agents of the liquor traffic. We are face to face with the greatest crisis in our country’s history.

As microscope technology improved over time, the magnification became advanced enough to discover cells in the 17th century. This discovery is largely attributed to Robert Hooke, and began the scientific study of cells, also known as cell biology. Over a century later, debate continued among scientists about how cells began. Most of these debates involved the nature of cell reproduction, and the idea of cells as a fundamental unit of life. Cell theory was eventually formulated in 1839.


The three tenets to the cell theory are as described below:

1. All living organisms are composed of one or more cells.

2. The cell is the basic unit of structure and organization in organisms.

3. Cells arise from pre-existing cells.


Anton van Leeuwenhoek is a scientist who saw cells soon after Hooke did. He made use of a microscope containing improved lenses that could magnify objects almost 30ox. Under these microscopes, Leeuwenhoek found moving objects that he named “animalcules,” which included protozoa and other unicellular organisms, like bacteria. He was also able to observe red blood cells and sperm cells. Leeuwenhoek's research can be used to support which of the tenets of cell theory?


A.) some cells emerge spontaneously.

B.) the cell is the basic unit of structure and organization in organisms.

C.) cells arise from pre-existing cells.

D.) all living and non-living items are made of cells.

We can see Response area objects because light Response area are altered by the objects. Unless an object is perfectly transparent, a little of the light bounces off by the property of Response area. Most of the light Response area bends by the property of Response area as it passes through a clear object. For example, when you look at a glass, Response area bends the light as it passes through the glass and the background image ends up changed. Your Response area interprets the rays reaching your eye. It determines the shape of the cup by how the background image is distorted.

If the refraction of a clear material can be canceled, the object could be made invisible. A correctly shaped object could be made invisible to the eye. These objects would need Response area sides. The refraction entering the object and the refraction leaving would cancel out.

Based on information in the article, what is one way that small farms are different from larger ones in the U.S.?


A.Children working on small farms are less likely to harvest tobacco leaves and show signs of Green Tobacco Sickness.

B.Labor laws do not set a minimum age at which children are able to start working on small farms in the United States.

C.United States labor laws for small farms are being questioned, especially for workers who are age 18 or older.

D.Small farms have enough money to offer better pay and more effective protective gear to their field laborers.


International rights group Human Rights Watch released a report about children who work on U.S. tobacco farms. In response to the results, the organization is urging the government and the tobacco industry to protect these young workers.
The report is based on interviews with more than 140 children working on farms in the U.S. states of North Carolina, Kentucky, Tennessee, and Virginia. It claims that children as young as 7 are in some cases working long hours in fields harvesting tobacco leaves. Sometimes, the work is done under hazardous conditions. Most of what the group documented is legal. Human Rights Watch wants cigarette makers to push for safety on farms from which they buy tobacco. The group also wants the U.S. government to change labor laws.
"The U.S. has failed America's families by not meaningfully protecting child farmworkers from dangers to their health and safety, including on tobacco farms," said Margaret Wurth, a children's rights researcher who co-authored the report.
In their interviews, the child tobacco farm workers indicated that their health and safety were indeed at risk. Nearly three-quarters of them reported becoming ill, with symptoms including vomiting, nausea, and headaches. These are indications of Green Tobacco Sickness, which can occur when a person handles tobacco leaves and nicotine is absorbed into the skin. The children also reported working long hours, often in extremely hot conditions, which can be dangerous. They said that they were not given overtime pay or sufficient breaks. In addition, the children and they donned no, or inadequate, protective gear.

U.S. law puts limits on labor performed by minors (children under age 18). But these restrictions vary by industry.

According to the Human Rights Watch report, U.S. agriculture labor laws are more lax, allowing children to work longer hours at younger ages and in more hazardous conditions than children in any other industry. With a parent's permission, children as young as 12 can be hired for unlimited hours outside of school hours on a farm of any size. There's no minimum age for children to work on small farms. In 2011, the U.S. Labor Department proposed changes that would have prohibited age 16 from working on tobacco farms. However, these changes were never passed into law.
Human Rights Watch met with many of the world's biggest cigarette makers and tobacco growers to discuss its findings. The group hoped to push the farms and companies to adopt or strengthen their labor and safety policies. The companies say that they are concerned about child labor. They have developed standards, including requiring growers to provide a safe work environment and adhere to child labor laws.
