Why did the Embargo Act of 1807 create more negative impact than positive?
The act encouraged the continued impressment of American sailors.
The act prevented France & Britain from trading with each other.
The act damaged the economy so severely New England merchants called for the impeachment of President Jefferson.
The act stopped all American trade but did not prevent other countries from trading with each other.
Answer:
The Embargo Act of 1807 was an attempt by President Thomas Jefferson and the U.S. Congress to prohibit American ships from trading in foreign ports. It was intended to punish Britain and France for interfering with American trade while the two major European powers were at war with each other.
The embargo was precipitated primarily by Napoleon Bonaparte's 1806 Berlin Decree, which announced that neutral ships carrying British-made goods were subject to seizure by France, thus exposing American ships to attacks by privateers. Then, a year later, sailors from the USS Chesapeake were forced into service by officers from the British ship HMS Leopard. That was the final straw. Congress passed the Embargo Act in December 1807 and Jefferson signed it into law on December 22, 1807.
The president hoped that the act would prevent a war between the United States and Britain. At the same time, Jefferson saw it as a way to keep ships as military resources out of harm's way, buy time for the preservation, and signify (after the Chesapeake event) that the U.S. recognized that a war was in the future. Jefferson also saw it as a way to cease non-productive war-profiteering which was undermining the coveted but never achieved goal of American autarky—economic independence from Britain and other economies.
Perhaps inevitably, the Embargo Act was also a precursor to the War of 1812.
Effects of the Embargo
Economically, the embargo devastated American shipping exports and cost the American economy about 8 percent in decreased gross national product in 1807. With the embargo in place, American exports declined by 75%, and imports declined by 50%—the act did not completely eliminate trade and domestic partners. Before the embargo, exports to the United States reached $108 million. One year later, they were just over $22 million.
Yet Britain and France, locked in the Napoleonic Wars, were not greatly damaged by the loss of trade with Americans. So the embargo intended to punish Europe's greatest powers instead negatively impacted ordinary Americans.
Although the western states in the Union were relatively unaffected, as they had at that point little to trade, other parts of the country were hit hard. Cotton growers in the South lost their British market entirely. Merchants in New England were the hardest hit. In fact, discontent was so widespread there that there was serious talk by local political leaders of seceding from the Union, decades before the Nullification Crisis or the Civil War.
Jefferson's Presidency
Another result of the embargo was that smuggling increased across the border with Canada, and smuggling by ship also became prevalent. So the law was both ineffective and difficult to enforce. Many of those weaknesses were addressed by a number of amendments and new acts written by Jefferson's Secretary of the Treasury Albert Gallatin (1769–1849), passed by Congress, and signed into law by the president: but the president himself essentially ceased active support on his own after signaling his decision to not seek a third term in office in December 1807.
Not only would the embargo taint Jefferson's presidency, making him fairly unpopular by its end, but the economic effects also didn't fully reverse themselves until the end of the War of 1812.
End of the Embargo
The embargo was repealed by Congress early in 1809, just days before the end of Jefferson's presidency. It was replaced by a less restrictive piece of legislation, the Non-Intercourse Act, which prohibited trade with Britain and France.
The newer law was no more successful than the Embargo Act had been, and relations with Britain continued to fray until, three years later, President James Madison obtained a declaration of war from Congress and the War of 1812 began.

“39. No free man shall be arrested or imprisoned or . . . in any way victimized, neither will we attack him or send anyone to attack him, except by lawful judgment of his peers or by the law of the land.”
—Magna Carta
“That excessive bail ought not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishment. inflicted;
“That jurors ought to be duly impanelled [sworn in] . . . and jurors which pass upon men in trials for high treason ought to be freeholders.”
—English Bill of Rights

They led the English colonists to demand representative government.
They supported the colonists’ demands for self-rule.
They encouraged the English colonists to give most people the right to vote.
They inspired the English colonists to create the Constitution.
Answer:
I believe it is either B or A but heres what I found
The Magna Carta and the English Bill of Rights affected the colonial government by:
Magna Carta- influenced many other documents for rights; limited powers of king and over time the rights were granted to English people, not just noblemen and freemen
English Bill of Rights- the government was to be based on the laws of Parliament, not the desires of the king; later help create salutary neglect-a hands-off policy that lead the colonists to act on their own

Answer:
Water is a basic necessity for life on Earth. It is an odorless and tasteless molecule that exists in several forms. These forms include liquid, solid, and gas. Liquid water is the water that we drink and the water found in the oceans. Solid water is the water that makes up ice, hail, and snow. The gas phase of water is known as water vapor, and it is invisible. The term humidity refers to how much water vapor is found in the air.
Within a cloud, water droplets condense onto one another, causing the droplets to grow. When these water droplets get too heavy to stay suspended in the cloud, they fall to Earth as rain. ... Water vapor turns into clouds when it cools and condenses—that is, turns back into liquid water or ice.this is how rain forms. Since the 1940s, cloud seeding has been used to change the structure of clouds by dispersing substances into the air, potentially increasing or altering rainfall.
Water covers nearly 75% of the surface of the Earth, and the majority is found in the oceans. The vast size and number of bodies of water covering the Earth make it appear that water is abundantly available. In reality, the Earth has a limited supply of water, and the water that we do have is recycled over and over via the water cycle. The water cycle, also known as the hydrologic cycle, is an endless water exchange between the atmosphere, groundwater, surface water, soil, and plants. The water cycle is made up of four stages: evaporation, condensation, precipitation, and collection.
Precipitation is condensed water vapor, those millions of water droplets up in the atmosphere, that falls back to the Earth from the clouds. Snow is formed when cold air freezes the water droplets into ice crystals. As water vapor increasingly collects on the crystal, it becomes heavy and eventually falls from the sky
Snow forms when the atmospheric temperature is at or below freezing (0 degrees Celsius or 32 degrees Fahrenheit) and there is a minimum amount of moisture in the air. If the ground temperature is at or below freezing, the snow will reach the ground. although rain forms when it is a bit warm
and snow forms when it is cold aleast 32 degrees Fahrenheit, but rain can for to snow easily just by colds, or it can turn in to hail
