industry inventing the cotton gin
creating the first corporation
working to abolish slavery

The correct answer is inventing the cotton gin.

The cotton gin was a machine that easily removed seeds from cotton. This rapidly increased the ability of farmers and slaves to produce cotton. After this invention was implemented, slaves could clean over 200 pounds of cotton in a day. This was incredible, considering before this time (when the process was done by hand) a slave could only clean about 1 pound a day.

Even though this machine was supposed to make the lives of slaves easier, it had the opposite effect as slavery increased in the Southern states due to the ability to generate a large profit off this good.

depends on the age of the teen, many believe by the age of 16 a person should know the strong difference between right and wrong along with the difference between risky and immediate death. swimming with sharks might be dangerous but swimming with sharks while bloody meat is attached to you is just insane. even more if you have no idea what you're doing. however, no matter the age, as long as the person is skilled enough and has the mental and physical capacity to control their actions doing whatever sport they put their mind to is all that matters.
