Answer 1

2.The framers of the Constitution believed that concessions on slavery were the price for the support of southern delegates for a strong central government. They were convinced that if the Constitution restricted the slave trade, South Carolina and Georgia would refuse to join the Union. But by sidestepping the slavery issue, the framers left the seeds for future conflict. After the convention approved the great compromise, Madison wrote: "It seems now to be pretty well understood that the real difference of interests lies not between the large and small but between the northern and southern states. The institution of slavery and its consequences form the line of discrimination."

Of the 55 delegates to the Constitutional Convention, about 25 owned slaves. Many of the framers harbored moral qualms about slavery. Some, including Benjamin Franklin and Alexander Hamilton became members of anti-slavery societies.

3.Enslaved Africans in the United States used a number of measures to show resistance to a life in bondage. But before it was abolished, enslaved people had three available methods to resist a life in bondage:

• They could rebel against enslavers
• They could run away
• They could perform small, daily acts of resistance, such as slowing down work

4.Such gains arise in a number of ways. Expanding the production of America's most competitive industries and products, through exports, raises U.S. incomes.With the ability to serve a global market, investment is encouraged in our expanding export sectors and the rising scale of output helps lower average production costs. Such effects help strengthen America’s economic growth rate. Moreover, imports increase consumer choice, and help keep prices low raising the purchasing power for consumers. Imports also provide high quality inputs for American businesses helping companies and their U.S. employees become or remain highly competitive in both domestic and foreign markets.

5.Many resisted slavery in a variety of ways, differing in intensity and methodology. Among the less obvious methods of resistance were actions such as feigning illness, working slowly, producing shoddy work, and misplacing or damaging tools and equipment theft, arson, sabotage of crops, and running away.

6.Commerce is the exchange of goods and services on a large scale. Any transaction that uses the money to purchase goods or services is a part of the Commerce.
