Explanation:

• Question 7: Congressmen who wanted war with Britain were called "War Hawks". The term "Patriots" is a more general term for those supporting the nation. "Peace Doves" would be against war. "Revolutionaries" is also a more general historical term not specific to this war - Britain context.
• Question 8: Tecumseh and the Prophet were Shawnee leaders. The Prophet (Tenskwatawa) was Tecumseh's brother. They tried to unite Indian tribes against settlers. They were not British officers (B), American generals (C), or War Hawks (D).
• Question 9: The Battle of Lake Erie was a significant naval victory. It boosted American morale and allowed for an invasion of Upper Canada. The Battle of Tippecanoe was a battle against Native - American forces. The Battle of Baltimore was important for the national anthem but not for the Upper Canada invasion. The Battle of New Orleans was after the Treaty of Ghent.
• Question 10: Francis Scott Key was inspired by seeing the American flag still flying after the attack on Fort McHenry. The Battle of New Orleans (B) was a land battle. The Treaty of Ghent (C) ended the war. The burning of the White House (D) was a destructive event but not the inspiration for the anthem.
