What was the one-drop rule? a. only people of the same race were allowed to marry. b. anyone with a white ancestor was considered white. c. anyone with a black ancestor was considered black. d. only people freed from slavery after the civil war were subject to black codes.

The correct answer is - C. Anyone with a black ancestor was considered black.

The one-drop rule was a rule based on racial segregation. According to this rule, any individual that had at least one ancestor that was of sub-Saharan ancestry, thus black (Negro by historical terms), was considered a black person. This rule was based on racial segregation, and the attempt to maintain purity in the bloodline of the white people, by deliberately putting the people with sub-Saharan ancestry aside from the white communities.

b. after i get up in the morning,

explanation:

after is a subordinating conjunction that introduces a time clause. time clauses are dependent clauses used to indicate when something happened.

the clause "after i get up in the morning" tells when the action in the main clause (drinking a cup of coffee) happens:

"after i get up in the morning, i drink a cup of coffee." it is the most logical choice of all.
