Explanation:

Question 8

In the 1800 presidential election, after a tie and subsequent House of Representatives decision, Thomas Jefferson won. George Washington was not in the 1800 election (he had already served and retired), Aaron Burr tied with Jefferson initially but didn't win the presidency, and John Adams lost this election.

Americans wanted to move West mainly for land ownership. The West offered opportunities for acquiring land (e.g., through the Louisiana Purchase - related opportunities, homesteading ideas later, etc.). Large cities were not a draw for westward migration (the West was more rural then), open plains were part of the landscape but not the primary reason, and shipping routes were not a main factor for westward movement (focus was on land, farming, new settlements).

Answer:

A. Thomas Jefferson
