Which Amendment is being violated in the following situations? 1. Mr. Johnson, an avid hunter, opens the door of his home one day to find agents from the Bureau outside. They inform him that certain provisions of a new federal law allow them to confiscate (take away) his rifles so that he may not engage in terrorist activities or plot against the United States government. They have no evidence that he is connected to any such activities.
2. A neighbor is suing the Smiths because a tree in the Smiths’ yard fell on their roof during a hurricane. The neighbors want the Smith family to pay $900 to have their roof repaired. Mr. Smith requests that a jury be present to hear this case. The judge says it is
not necessary since the amount of the repairs is so small. The Smith family lives in Washington D. C.
3. A person is arrested for suspected connections to an inner-city murder. The police do not inform him of his rights and immediately begin to interrogate (question) him. They continue until he admits he knows the victim of the crime and was in the neighborhood
where the murder took place.
4. Because of the budget deficit, the United States government is looking for ways to cut costs. They have announced a plan during peacetime to house unmarried soldiers in the homes of American citizens who do not have children.
5. Because members of Congress are unhappy with students’ standardized test scores in many states, they pass a federal law that abolishes (makes illegal) local school boards and requires a standardized national curriculum.

answer:   migrations were important in the neolithic period. "two major migrations passing through southeastern europe were confirmed by the means of archaeo-genetic studies."

the first migration was the early neolithic period -- 6,000 before common era (bce) -- when the first farmers, from anatolia -- asia minor -- spread through europe. the second migration occurred during the early bronze age (3,000-2,500 bce) when the so-called "steppe population," from the eurasian steppe, replaced much of northern europe's previous population.

the first farmers of northern and western europe passed through southeastern europe with limited hunter-gatherer genetic admixture, which occurs when two or more previously isolated populations begin interbreeding. however, some groups that remained mixed extensively -- without the male-biased, hunter-gatherer admixture that prevailed later in the north and west, according to latest discoveries. southeastern europe continued to be a nexus between east and west, with intermittent genetic contact with the steppe people up to 2,000 years before the migrations that replaced much of northern europe's population.

"in some places, hunter-gatherers and incoming farmers seem to have mixed very quickly," says iain mathieson, a geneticist at the university of pennsylvania, who was first author of the paper. "but, mostly, the two groups remained isolated, at least for the first few hundred years. these hunter-gatherers had been living there for thousands of years, and it must have been quite a shock to have these new people show up -- with a completely different lifestyle and appearance."

superior technology and improved medical knowledge to foster imperialism. quinine enabled europeans

to survive tropical diseases and venture into the mosquito-infested interiors of africa and asia. the combination

of the steamboat and the telegraph enabled the western powers to increase their mobility and to quickly respond

to any situations that threatened their dominance. the rapid-fire machine gun also gave them a military advantage

and was in convincing africans and asians to accept western control. the following table summarizes the

causes of the new imperialism:
