the correct answer is "pioneers carried all of their possessions on long and dangerous trails".

the first wave of pioneers travelled in 1842. they were merely 100 people. the next year that sum climbed to 1000 men, women, and children. these people travelled around 2,000 miles to oregon in the hopes of a better life. although the first part of the trip didn't present many obstacles, as time and miles went by they learnt that threat came from simple things, like becoming ill due to unclean water or bad food.

the weather didn't much, as wagons couldn't protect them from storms. as they travelled through the desert, the intense heat caused wood to shrink. their own lips abscessed and split because of the dry air. the only cure for this was to rub axle grease on their lips.

even crossing rivers was dangerous. sometimes wheels were damaged by unseen rocks on shallow water. mud didn't much either. pioneers were afraid of indian attacks, but there aren't many records of fights between pioneers and native americans. accidents happened because of negligence, exhaustion, guns, and bad weather.

history says that 1 of 10 pioneers who travelled to oregon didn't survive the journey. diseases spread fastly because they didn't have doctors and medical care was ofently improvised. one of the most deadly diseases they came upon was cholera, which became a worldwide pandemia.

the correct answer is b) the american colonies were not supporting each other.

at the time abigail wrote her second letter to john adams on november 27, 1775 she begins the letter with a series of rhetorical questions such as: if a form of government is to be established here what one will be assumed? , will it be left to the assemblies to chose one? with this questions, she is asking her husband what new form of government will be established and she is concerned that the delegates may not be able to come to consensus.

also, abigail believes that the regulations of government have been "so long slackened" that people could ignore a new government; she recognizes difficulty to establishing a new state.
